Internet Prob...help needed

[think_sweet]

Over the past week i have been encountering a lot of problems with the internet, connection is absolutely fine, however certain websites (with links) wont open...a little exlamation icon in a yellow triangle appears at the bottom left-hand side of the page reading "error on page"! More annoying is that certain images, words, text will not appear, eg, youtube films wont load yet page reads "done" even the answerbank page is nearly blank no page/question numbers ect...does anyone know how i could sort this problem out thanks very much x

Have a look at your security settings, they may be too high

Thanks for help, checked security levels, they are set on low...I think it may have something to do with 'flash player' but when i go to install flash player 9, the page comes up completely empty yet lower left page icon reads 'done'....its reeealy starting to drive me mad....

There are problems with flash player 9 and IE6. See if you can go back to Flash Player 8 and see if that solves the problem.

Also, Quicktime can interfere, check its file associations and tell it NOT to play Flash content.

Download mozilla firefox and use it as your browser. I find it easier to use and never have any trouble with it.

think_sweet, as Bigeye74 says, try Firefox - Flash Player 9 works OK with that.

Also look at a previous thread in AB:-
