Windows XP Home Edition SP3 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20120604 SeaMonkey/2.10 Flash 11.3 r300(257) (11.3.300.257) It works for me. Is it possible you have FlashBlock enabled? When I first go to <http://www.hbogo.com>, most of my browser window is filled with a Flash presentation. Have you tried going to <http://www.hbogo.com> in Safe Mode? When I go to <http://www.hbo.com> instead of <http://www.hbogo.com>, I get redirected to <http://www.hbo.com/html/error/browser_message_e.html?return=http://www.hbo.com/>, which is a page with the following under the HBO logo: > The browser you are using is not recommended > > It appears you are currently using SeaMonkey 2.10 which is not fully > supported by this site.

I had to type the last line above manually; it's actually an image that is a link. When I selected that link, I got the actual <http://www.hbo.com/>, again with a very large Flash presentation. Notice that HBO is still touting Firefox 4.0 and IE7!! When I spoof Firefox 13.0, I go directly to <http://www.hbo.com/> without any redirection to <http://www.hbo.com/html/error/browser_message_e.html?return=http://www.hbo.com/>. That raises the question: Have you disabled "Advertise Firefox compatibility" (as I have done)? -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
