I don't know if you guys experience this, but to me this is a very annoying issue.
Often when I'm watching a video, whether I may be streaming from youtube or just watching a regular avi file, I often get this random bug where the screen freezes for some seconds and the sound gets all distorted. This is a video to prove that.

Does anyone know what's the cause of this, and if it has a solution?
I know our laptop has quite a few problems, the noisy fan being one of the worst, but this one really bugs me! At times I get this 4 5 times while watching a 20min video!

Do you have McAfee installed in your system?

Yes...is that what causes this?
If so, why? -

I'm not 100% sure but it could be the NetGuard, here's more information on it and how to disable it:
