No matter what sport I select, I get a page with the Olympics 2012/NBC
logo on the right and a blank frame on the left.  When I try to report
this, NBC's Help/Contact page insists that I have the wrong CAPTCHA
number.

No, I'm not using "Advertise Firefox compatibility".  Instead, my UA
string is
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1

I'm able to watch them. I had to go to a start here page and provide information about my digital TV service to prove that I'm entitled to get them. I had to enable setting third party cookies to get that to work (they gave me an error message telling me I had to do that). After that it worked. It worked with Flashblock but I white listed nbcolympics.com just so I wouldn't have to keep clicking on them to enable. I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium SeaMonkey 2.11 Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20120715 Firefox/14.0.1 SeaMonkey/2.11 Flash 11.3.300.265
