I'm recently experiencing strange problem. I cannot find what causing it. I used to be able to upload video to youtube and used to able host game room on Warcraft 3 / Diablo 2. But now I can't. I tried to check everything I can think of, they SHOULD be working but they aren't. Anyone know how to check over these type of thing? I checked with spybot / AVG virus scanner, no threat. I checked with built-in Firewall, these are already permitted. I checked with NoScript for youtube, it is permitted. I checked with my router port forwarding, games should be permitted. (port 6112-6119 for WC3 and some other games, 4000 for Diablo 2)

What are the symptoms that occur when you notice that you cannot upload to Youtube? I mean, is there message that pops up, or something?

For Youtube, on first part of uploading file screen. It says "connecting" forever. I tried click "Click here if you are having trouble uploading", and it took me to slightly different upload page, it says same thing like MUGG says.

Well, it does take a while to upload video, depending on your connection speed. On my connection it takes about 30 seconds per megabyte, which means for large videos it can be 50 minutes or more. What I have noticed, though, is that recently I have to click the "if you're having trouble with the uploader" link in order for the upload even to start.
How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.

connection speed is not problem, making connection is problem.

YouTube noted to recently do some site maintenance, and that some functions might be limited during that time, so that could be a possible reason.

Damit... this mystery problem came back again. Still need help. I need like.. instruction to analyze deeper into what the hell problem is. I already looked into ipconfig command, 192.168.1.3 for this machine, port for game forwarded to this machine, firewall permitted game, etc... should be working fine but it isn't.

YouTube has a special uploader for files larger than 100 MB (although still with a 10 minute maximum length). It lets you upload multiple files at once, also... I've had the same problem as you quite a few times, and it all seems to go smoothly when I use this uploader instead. YouTube Uploader
