Why Wont Video Links Work on My 'puter

[Saitch]

Whenever I try to open a v/link on this or any other site it runs for 2-10 secs & then freezes. Is there some security setting that I'm overlooking. For example, if I go to Youtube itself straight off, no problem, but try to view a Youtube link someones put up here, no go.:mad:

its hard to say without looking at it but sounds like it could be a security setting

could you please let me know what browser + version and also your operating system so I can look into it some more

Cheers

OK it appears its a flash player issue

go to the adobe website and install the latest version of flash player

If that doesn"t work and you are comfortable altering registry enties on your PC then have a look at the link below

If you are not find a geeky friend to do it for you as playing withe the registry can do nasty things to your computer ^_^

Good luck and keep me informed on how you go

Thanks all. All good now. It was a setting in the latest Flash Player upgrade I got a week or two back. Not sure what it was as Nephew Nerd just sorted it. More by good luck than management he reckons.

Haha
He should get into IT
the amount of times I have seen specialists sitting in a server room scratching their heads with Google up on their laptops I am sure he could show them a thing or two :)

Good to hear its fixed
