    Hey guys, i more or less recently signed up to the forums (long time watcher of filecabi) Off the bat here 2 things 1. the site rocks 2. sorry for bad spelling Anyhows, I have gone into the uploaded videos forum on several occaisions and clicked a link to the video. despite this i am having the new page open up. but the video will not load. the Windows Media screen will just continually say 'ready'. I have tried Play and Stop and all sorts of other combinations. I have a feeling I cant connect to the media. Does anyone know any help for me with this problem. (I can watch videos that are on the site with no hassle at all) Big

    Welcome to the forum! Im not sure what causes this, but I have found that if I clear my cache files and restart IE that I can watch the videos with no problems. That is until it decides to start doing it again, then I have to redo the cache clear trick again. Im not sure but I think it's some sort of bug within IE. In case you don't know how to clear your cache... go to: tools> internet options> general tab> delete files button> check the delete all offline content> click OK> close all windows and restart IE Hope that made sense!

    Yeah, go to http://www.getfirefox.com and get firefox and use it. Some people say that works a whole lot better for them than IE. I use a combo of IE and Firefox myself.
