All Foxnews videos are blocked. Here is an example.

I'm sure its a popup or advertisement blocking program but I will need
help identifying it.
Thanks
The FOX News video is a Flash presentation, you will need Flash
installed for your web browser.

I have the latest flash installed and can see many other sites' flash
videos so it must be something else.

You're right. With AdBlocker Plus enabled, I get a black rectangle, but with it disabled, I get an ad followed by the video. I've seen this before -- the content seems to be called by the ad, so if you block the ad, you don't get the content.

Aha, and I know I have AdBlocker because I see its icon overlying some websites but I don't see it in the Programs list or Add & Remove Programs.
How do you turn it off, temporarily?
Thanks
Dave

Coupla ways...

In a browser OR mail window, CTRL-SHIFT-E or Tools | Options | AdBlock Plus Preferences; in the window that opens, Options | uncheck Enable AdBlock Plus

In a browser OR mail window, if you have the red stop-sign at the lower left corner of your screen, click it and choose among Disable everywhere/Disable on video.foxnews.com/Disable on this page only/Options.

These things are unavailable in a mail composition window.

Or you could RTFM.

Of course, the downside of all this is you'll be getting Fox Noise content plus ads... ;-)

I did try disabling Adblock and although I was successful it did not fix the problem!
Any other ideas?
Also about replying here - what is the best way? When I click reply there is no quoting at all, I have to copy and past all past discussion...and selectively so as to not quote the whole digest.
