Went to: http://www.uspoledance.com/ and was ABLE to view the video Went to: http://www.jacquielawson.com/ and, after signing in, was NOT able to view the video. This is becoming very frustrating as so many sites use flash to get one's attention even when it's not a video. So when I encounter the problem, I have to switch to Firefox. Any help would be much appreciated. I do not want to transfer to FF because I do not have the time for the learning curve. TIA So is your problem flash-related or are the videos windows media format or anything like that? regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
