I don't want to listen to the disgusting ex-governor, but all of a sudden, my computer won't let me stream anything. Whatever site I plug in, it just shuts the computer down. Anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?
Have you made any change to your computer? Check your running processes. When you say the computer stops, does it freeze? All streaming, Windows Media, RealPlayer, Winamp? If you don't know that, you might try system restore. Assuming you've done periodic checkpoint, you can go to Programs>Accessories>System Tools>system restore. If a previous checkpoint exists prior to the time it stopped working, try that. If that fails to fix the problem, you might try reinstalling one of the media players, starting with the most reliable Windows Media.
