Help Watching Metclub Vids

Post by Fadingtoblack »

Hey all,


For some reason I can no longer watch any of the Metclub vids.


If I use IE, the popup window closes instantly (even with googlebar etc blocked)

If I use Firefox I get sound but no video.


Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I'm falling behind on my Top Secret and Babble vids :P


Thanks in advance!

It has been noted that Firefox wont be compatable with it for awhile.

Sory, let me re-phrase

It hasnt been posted anywhere, but it has been noted by the webmaster, with no near future fix.

^^ Ah ok, now I get you - at least my eyes don't need checking :lol:


At least IE is working now..

And on that topic - We found the problem to be Adaware's real time monitor Adwatch closing the windows - now while we can just turn it off if we want to add something - does anyone know how to add exemptions so we can just leave it on?
