youtube.com slows down my phone to a total unusable crawl

Whenever I visit youtube.com and the main site loads, it gets to a point in loading where my whole phone gets waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too slow. I cannot do anything and its basically frozen. I am running WM6 so I don't know if that is the cause or if there is a solution however if anyone knows what might be going on help is appriciated.

Mine did the same thing and when rebooted it never comes up and I have to do a hard reset to get going again. This is the second time I have had to hard reset with WM6 in 5 days.

Use http://www.ytpocket.com. It's Youtube for Pocket PC and it works great. You may have to install additional software but it was worth it.

It was stated in another thread, that the reason for this might be that the new rom might be trying to get all the info on the page. i.e. all flashable files on the page are loading. there is a .cab file around that should aleviate the situation.
