weird problem that started about a couple of days ago.

have a few videos, mostly songs, on my favourites folder.
been running then, quite happily for a few days.
then, couple of days ago, I start getting "This video not available in your country" messages.

Whats causing this? Why is it happening?

I thought my PC was hacked and had been cloned. So checked my IP address. it shows the location as Shropshire, in the UK, which is where I actually am.

The video hasnt changed, as far as I know.

I do occasionally get "Video not available", but thats because the company who owns it, has it taken off youtube. This has happened a couple of times, for example, to Simon and Garfunkels "Sound of Silence".

the videos its happening to are:
The Ting-tings (Thats not my name)
Beyonce (Put a ring on it)

Also got it with U2 (One - buffalo version) but it "corrected" itself.

any clues as to the cause?
