This is the YouTube app, pokee? I've hesitated to suggest this because its effectiveness varies depending on the device and who knows how heavily tweaked from standard Android the Vox is, but what has sometimes worked for me in the past when the YouTube app has acted up on my Android devices is to go to Settings > Applications > Manage applications* > find and tap YouTube > if running already, Force stop > Clear cache > if still not working, repeat Force stop, Clear cache, Clear data.

* I think these steps are standard across Android 2.3 devices, but am not positive.

- Clear cache will clear temporary data from the app.
- Clear data will clear any personal data, e.g. if you're logged into YouTube via the app you'll have to reenter your details after this.
