Forwarding to Linux-Il (see the message below). I don't have a way to check flash player 9 on the wejew.com or walla.comsites. Can someone check the sites using flash player 9 please?

It was related to a security change macrodobia made with the way a new "security" feature works with the new players. When connecting to a socket, the new players now request a policy file from the server, and if it doesn't exist, it just closes the connection. Old code that isn't updated to use this "feature" seems to get stuck when downloading something through sockets, like video players not playing the video, the spinner thing spinning forever, etc... http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security.html Try to downgrade to a player version lower than 9.0.115.0, if it works, maybe that's the problem. 2009/8/11 Arie Skliarouk <[email protected]>: > That looks reminiscent to the way videos on site wejew.com don't work, for > example > http://wejew.com/media/5193/Hizbullah_Violates_UN_Resolution_1701_in_Lebanon_15.7.09/ > > It also loads up and the spinner rotates endlessly.
