I am trying to play an online link from a news service that says that I need to have Window Active x media player installed.  In Firefox it pops up a window to ask if I want to install it and I say ok, It comes back and says it is installed successfully but it won't do.  If I try internet explorer it tells me I need flash player 8 or later and I have downloaded that and installed.  I have rebooted many times and all to no avail.  I have even lowered my security level so that is not an issue.

I am trying to play one of the videos from this page.  http://www.bnn.ca/shows/past_archive.tv

Any suggestions.  Many thanks

Firefox doesn't use ActiveX, so it must be asking some other question.

I tried to play several videos from that site, and they won't load. Maybe a site problem.
