Help needed with Internet settings.

[Postdog]

I have two computers, a desktop running XP and a laptop running Vista.

On my desptop, I can open a movie link on a site, and it will play the movie, but I cannot do this on the laptop - it says it can't open the page.

The thing is, the page exsts. Same site on my desktop, no problem, I can even save the target on my laptop, but just playing it will not work.

Any suggestions fo settings that need altering?

You may need to install flash player on the laptop, if you click on a link (url) and it conatins a media file your computer is checked for the right software to be able to display that page be it music, movies, pdf etc etc.

Yes you need to install flesh player, to do this Go to Tools > Add-on > installed new add-on.

No,it isn't that at all. Flash is installed and enabled. I think it may be something to do with security settings.
