    Welcome to the Forums.

     

    Sorry for all the following questions, but....

     

    1. Do you have XP or Vista?

     

    2. What kind of Internet connection do you have? (dial-up, cable, low speed DSL or high-speed DSL)

     

    3. You mentioned having upgraded IE....are you using 7 or the Yahoo-touted IE8?

     

    4. What kind of anti-virus software are you using?

     

    ANd last but not least....do you get some kind of an "Error Message"?

    I couldn't get it to play from the "main" video / podcasts webpage (seen below in a screen-shot)...

     

     

     

    But when I went to the webpage that lists all the Episodes of "Knot Wars"...I could play them for some reason. Here's a link to that page.

     

    http://www.fishingclub.com/ExtraContent/ExtraContentDetail.aspx?id=146070

     

    Right click on this link and then on "Open in New Window". THen scroll down and click on one of the Episode links and see if that works for you.

    DId you try the link etc...that I posted above?

     

    On the main page (screenshot), I too got the NAFC logo.

     

    But the videos played from the link page I posted above.

     

    I DO know that Norton can block things....even pictures on websites. I had a friend that had Norton on a new laptop a couple of years ago. She tried going through their Tech Support....and they were no help. We finally got rid of Norton all together...and installed SpyBot....and she hasn't had ONE problem since then.

    I found the firewall in the router needed to be modified, all works OK now.

    Thanks for the posts

    You're welcome Edgar. Glad you figured it out.

     

    Just goes to show how many DIFFERENT things can affect Internet connectivity / application / website issues.
