What happens if you visit another site that uses Flash?  Does it display properly on your browser?

Yeah, that's what makes it frustrating.  Undecided

*I know the show is on today.  Prob. is, nothing would play, and before the page even loads, I get the flash play required sign.  (see pic.)

Haven't tried today, I'll check when I get home.

hmm, that IS annoying.

If you still encounter problems when you get home today, I've heard of problems where the flash version installed in the browser doesn't match the one you think you have.

If you visit the page below, it should display the flash version under "Your Player Version".

I missed LOST tonight.  Sad  Don't ask.  I'm mad as hell, and not in a very good mood right now.

I go to abc.com/lost, etc.  ........ I get a blue screen.  It says, you need to download/install Macromedia Flash.  OK.  I figure it's a "No Script" deal.  I click on, and "allow" all of the things.  Nothing. Sad

I download flash from the website.( I already got Macromedia Flash!! Angry  I know it, you know, the whole world knows it!)  I get "download successful".  Go back to abc.com.  Same *feces*!

Ok.  I just wanna see the episode, and now, I'm even more pissed, at the others who didn't let me watch it live in the first ****** place!  AARRGGHH!!!!  Damn,  I'm pissed!

I open IE.  Same *feces*!!!!  WTF?  I can go to YouTube, Ebaumsworld, etc. and everything plays fine.  What is the problem?

(If I need to, How do I clear the history/cache on Firefox?)

Well then, set up a reminder to remind you to set it. Tongue
