Okay, so as more than a few know, I was stuck using a vertiable fossil of a computer to get online. Now I'm able to get online just fine using my friend's PC which has Windows 7 for its OS. All is fine except I can't seem to view videos that are embedded in the forums. At first I thought it was isolated to just youtube stuff but apparently I can't watch Press Start Adventures either.

Here're the Security settings for Internet:
.net Framework
- Loose XAML. Enabled
-XAML browser applications. Enabled
- XPS Documents. Enabled

.net Framewok-reliant components
- Permission for complanents w/ manifests. High Safety.
- Run components not signed with Authenticode. Enabled
- Run components signed with Authenticode. Enabled.

ActiveX controls and plug=ins
- Allow previously unused ActiveX controls to run without prompt. Enabled.
- Allow scriptlets. Enabled.
- Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls. Disabled.
- Binary and script behaviors. Enabled.
- Display video and animation on a website that doesn't use external media player. Enabled.
- Download signed ActiveX controls. Prompt.
- Download unsigned ActiveX controls. Disabled.
- Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe for scripting. Disabled.
- Only allow approved domains to use ActiveX without prompt. Enabled.
- Run ActiveX controls and plug=ins. Enabled.
- Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting. Enabled.

Downloads
- Automatic prompting for file downloads. Enabled.
- File Download. Enabled.
- Font Download. Enabled.

Enable .NET Framework setup. Enabled.

Misc.
- Allow data sources across domains. Diabled.
- Allow META REFRESH. Enabled.
- Allow scripting of Microsoft web browser control. Disabled.
- Allow script-initiated windows without size or position constraints. Disabled.
- Allow webpages to use restricted protocols for active content. Prompt.
- Allow webpages to open windows withoutaddress or status bars. Enable.
- Display mixed content. Prompt

I figure that's enough info to figure out what needs changing. If there isn't please let me know what else I should provide because I'd really like to see these videos without having to search for them off youtube.

First try with another browser. See if that fixes it.

Firefox or Chrome
