Computer Problems!

Hey Guys. I know a couple of you on here are computer wizzes, so maybe you can help me out. I am having trouble viewing a good number of videos recently and I don't know why. They don't come up as broken but there is an empty box where the video would be and there is a small icon in the upper left hand corner that is a small page with colored geometric figures on it. Anyone know what this is about?

It could be any number of things, missing codecs, plug ins, etc...but the most common is no flash plug in is installed. Just go to www.google.com and type in "download flash for...name of internet browser" let us know results.

My recommendation as well!

Yup. It depends on your computer, I've seen some browsers prompt for it, others not. Either way glad you fixed it.
