  Hi!
  Depending on the browser I use, I can’t watch videos on (my) blog. Chrome works perfectly, but Internet Explorer blocks the vids. As IE is my standard browser, it would be nice to know how to fix this. Anyone know how?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Couple of questions…
  Q1 what version is your IE browser ?

  Q2 Is your adobe flash player up to date ?
  You can find out via this link → http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

  What we need to know is the version of IE to which your refer. IE6 for example is the most problematic browser of all time. Microsoft has abandoned it completely and has issued advisories telling users to upgrade. IE7 has some quirks. IE8 works reasonably well. IE9 is BETA and of course has issues as it’s being BETA tested. So please post the version number of the IE browser that you are using.

  IE 8.0 and flash player 10.1
  Maybe it’s helpful to know what I get to see instead of the actual vid. I get to see a see-through square with a tiny image in the left corner.
  Thanks for willing to help!
