Videos won't show!

[ColFeren]

Hey my computer won't show videos, I've try updating and reinstalling, java and flash player. It made no differnce. You tube and i>player still work, but videos on fourms and on web pages don't.
They jsut come up as a white box with a piture at the top left hand side. 🙁

Please advise.

Hi newcomer and welcome to the Tom's hardware forum.

Check the pop up tool, maybe u need install some ActiveX control that is blocked by that tool.

Thanks, forgive my ignorance but what is a pop up tool? And where might I find it?

Don't worry we are here to help u.

On IE go to tools and look for the option "pop up"
