Using a Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, one can turn off animations, videos, and sound from automatically loading on web pages, and disable Active X content. The link at Microsoft help explains the process in detail.

Are you talking about Internet Explorer 7?  Maybe that darn thing just doesn't work.  Consider going back to IE6.  \n\nBut are you getting Flash from the right place?  Just maybe you should start at http://www.adobe.com and click on the Flash section.  Be sure to watch for blocked popups and such. \n\nGood luck and Happy Computing!

This is youtube's problem, not flash player 8's problem. No matter you update flash or not, you still can watch. The way is to delete the triple w on your adress.\n\nFor example: \nThis is the full address.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJE7YXWqCYo\n\nDelete the triple w and you can watch it again.\nhttp://youtube.com/watch?v=zJE7YXWqCYo\n\nI don't know why it is like that but it really works.

You should install the latest flash "driver" for your browser!

Have you tried dumping your browser's cache, along with your temporary internet files? \n\nI don't know if this is even the right advice, but it HAS helped me when web pages started acting "funny" on me. I have not, however, run into the specific problem you mentioned. But hopefully you'll get to the bottom of it! :)

Denise there's lots of reasons for this, and as I've found out in the last week, not easy to pinpoint and therefore impossible to rectify easily.\n\nThis is what I've attempted to do:\n\nSystem cleanup, followed by a defrag;\nDownload Mozilla Firefox;\nDownload and use frequently CCleaner;\nComplain to my ISP;\nRun a full system anti-virus scan;\nAsked for help here at Y!A and other sites re "Cannot find server" problem;\nSearched Y!A, Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft websites;\nUninstalled and re-installed my BT Yahoo browser;\nDid Start>Run>"cmd" Enter/OK> "ping uk.answers.yahoo.com" Enter to see if there's any 'time-outs' (although I didn't know what to do when there was!!!);\nand probably a bit more that I can't remember.\n\nin short, this last week's been a nightmare, but it seems to have calmed down quite significantly to a fairly tolerable rate of occurence.  But I don't know if it's because of anything I did or if 'it just sorted itself out'.\n\nMy advice is to try at least some of these things above, and cross your fingers that someone else here can give you better advice than I.

You might need to download a flash player.

We need a bit more information to really be of assistance here. What are you doing when it freezes, how many add-ons do you have, how many toolbars is installed, how often is it freezing, what else do you have open when it freezes, how many tabs are open when it freezes, what type of system do you have, how much memory-RAM do you have, what processor is installed, the video card, has the freezing occurred from the beginning or did it start at a later date, what sort of active X controls do you have, etc. \n\nWithout some of the above information it became very difficult if not impossible to help out. I can tell you that the box to send an error report is for you to decide if you want to send off the error report and the information in contains regarding the freezing episode to Microsoft, who will then compile the information, and come up with a response, or a fix to offer those like you who are having such problems. It is possible there may already be such a fix, if you click to send the report a link will be provided which may contain information on what to do to fix this, and other types of information to attempt to isolate the problem yourself and then fix it. This error report sends some of the above information to the Microsoft Labs, such as processor, and other computer configuration details. \n\nI can also tell you that you can remove IE7 and have IE6 placed back onto your system. Use the Add/Remove applet in Control Panel to remove IE7, when you reboot IE6 will be back installed on your system. At least that was how it worked before the mass downloading of IE7 via the Automatic Updates and I wouldn't think the behavior had changed, as some people just don't want to switch to IE7 yet, and there are those who have problems, like you are, who want to get rid of IE7 and have IE6 back. Why don't you go ahead and remove IE7, reboot and IE6 should be back. If it isn't just redownload and install IE7 again. Heck, just go ahead and go it anyway, as a new instance of IE7 may fix your problem as it may be a bad or currupt file in your version which is causing it to freeze up. I have been using IE7 for a month now and I like it a lot more than IE6. It only took me one day to get use to and come to love all the new features and security. \n\nGood luck and I hope you get this fixed really soon. Write more details so somebody else can offer a bit more help than I was able to. Have a great day!

I have been using Stopzilla, Yes I do have more than 256 RAM. It's working wonders for me. It has stop the annoying winfixer 2006 popup.

That is a bug in Internet Exploder which tries to access memory location 4  (which does not exist or it is not allowed to). Get Firefox, which is better and safer for free !

You can't really "speed up" dialup. or any connection for that matter.\nAs for your browser, try running windows update, or update whichever OS you use.

Flashget would probably work

Try to remember the concerns of the user. Not everyone that views your blog (if anyone does that is - as far as I can tell everyone writes blogs but nobody reads them) is going to want to use their bandwidth to download your flash animation. A way to avoid forcing them to do this which would also solve your original problem would be to post a _link_ to your flash animation. That way anyone who wants to view it can do so at their own leisure, those who don't want to don't have to, and Yahoo can't do a thing to stop it.\n\nRawlyn.

If you have installed `flash player' and are still facing problems.. i'd suggest that you download and install another browser and retry.. you can try Firefox or Opera
