My acer Netbook won't load videos?

I have an Acer netbook, and it has always run fine when it comes to streaming videos, but within the last few weeks, I can't seem to get them to load. They just load endlessly. Please keep in mind that I do NOT mean downloaded videos (those work on VLC fine) and I do not mean Netflix, or Youtube, those also (strangely enough) work. I am talking about from sites where you stream TV shows/Movies.

I have tried to update flash, cleared my history, turned off popup blocker, and I do not use a virus protection...any ideas?? Also, I know it isn't the site, because it works fine on my PC.

    Try to download another browser and see if it works in that browser. Like chrome or firefox if your using internet explorer. I RECOMMEND CHROME.

    Make sure the site your on doesnt need a special player and also there are no conflicting plugins in the browser that can keep it from functioning..
