Solve : IE 7 webpage photo and video boxes blank?

Answer»

When I download some websites using Internet Explorer 7, some of the graphic videos and photos do not appear.

There is only a large empty box visible with a small icon in the upper left hand corner which has a red square, a green circle, and a blue triangle as the icon.

What do I do to change settings, etc. to correct this?

I have SEARCHED Internet Explorer Help and can find nothing about this problem. Thanks for your help!

This.

Also, you may want to upgrade to IE8 as well (unless there are business or compatibility reasons not to).Soybean...
That solved the problem! I thought I had it already downloaded. Flash is SUPER!
Happy that you and this help site are available for us senior citizens.

Yes, Flash is used a lot nowadays and you miss a lot of content on the web without it.

Another browser plug-in you might need to install sometime is Microsoft's Silverlight. LIKE Flash, Silverlight is used by some websites for streaming media, i.e. video on the web page. Silverlight is a fairly recent product from Microsoft and isn't nearly as common yet as Flash. Whether it will take some market share away from Adobe's Flash is something that probably won't become evident for quite some time yet.

Silverlight is being used on http://www.nbcolympics.com/ for video clips from the Olympics.
