    Default Boxee keeps rebooting itself ??????????????????

    I read about this problem not too long ago and now it's affecting me as well ...
    Boxee starts till the Boxee logo comes up and then the buffering circle and back to a white page and doing this over and over ...
    tried powering off, didn't work ....

    [if you don't have this issue now... keep in mind > it'll affect you sooner or later... the same way powering off problem started back in January and keeps growing and hitting more users...]

    HELP!

    Have you tried:

    Removing the power cord for 15 seconds or so?
    Going into the restore menu and reselecting reset settings?

    This is FUD, plain and simple.

    Starting happening to me just now! I'm pissed! Nothing works. I can get the menu to come up for a second or two but then it still reboots.

    Tried the power cord suggestion - no help.
    Can't go the menu when the Boxee keeps rebooting. I reboots before you can get there.

    Anybody find a solution for this or is my Boxee a brick now? It is still rebooting as we speak.

    OK I found out how to factory reset. First I had to turn the Boxee off by holding the power button down. Then once it was powered down, I hold the power button down for at least 5 or 6 seconds. When I let go, a menu came up that let me factory restore. After doing that and going through the setup again, everything works again. Weird.
