both Google and Youtube don't work in Safari

    This is a really strange problem that people might be able to figure out.

    I can't access Google or YOutube on safari and I can't access youtube on Chrome.

    The page doesn't load or if it does, it just shows a blank white screen.

    both sites work fine on my iPad, so it's not a network issue.

    Any suggestions ?

    I've cleared the cache and reset Safari and same problem

    Have you any adblockers installed?

    Don't have any adblockers.

    The only thing I have running which might be the reason is Speedbit Video Accelerator

    In Safari, have you the status bar enabled ( view option). What happens there when you try to load google or youtube? Try 'best of 3' and install Firefox.

    Try uninstalling Speedbit and see. Is there an uninstaller that will remove it? If not, make sure you get everything. It probably installs a browser plugin that could be causing the problem.

    I disabled Speedbit and it's working now.

    Thanks for the help
