Unable to play videos on IE7 from websites

[Caladon]

I recently bought a new computer with Vista and the inevitable IE7. Can anyone tell me why I cannot play videos now... if i click on a video link, the link being a .wmv or a .mp3 file, it should play the file on windows media player. For example, if I go to the zero 7 website I can play the music videos on my old computer but not the new. It must be a setting, which I have tried lowering the security settings but no joy. (I can still play youtube videos however, it is just wmv and mp3) Thanks,Cal

A great alternative man - just use FireFox or Opera, much better browsers and wont monitor your every activity and report it back to HQ as IE does :]
