Installed your plugin and it works great in Firefox, but in IE7 is seems to work in only selected sites. Could this be a compatiblity problem with the templates. Here are 2 of our sites www.BruceFleisher.com and www.ChurchInTheGardens.com On one it works in both FF & IE7, the other only FF. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This appears to be an issue with IE7 and the Flash plug-in - not just an AllVideos issue. Check out this link blog.deconcept.com/2006/12/08/corrupt-flash-player-install-after-ie-7-upgrade/ for more information and/or trails to follow. However, to fix an IE7 installation, check out kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19166&sliceId=1 and follow the directions exactly. Also, leave the IE Security option for 'Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins' set to 'Prompt' as 'Enable' will continue to cause problems (if you only make the security change without doing the uninstall/permission change/re-install it won't work.) However, this doesn't help fix the overall problem, just an individual IE7 installation.

Not sure if this is an idea worth pursuing but according to the first site I have listed "...scripts that check for the Flash Player are failing, but since the plugin file is there, if you visit a site that does not use a detection script (like SWFObject) you will see the Flash content just fine."

I keep encountering extensions that utilize Flash that don't work properly in IE7 so AllVideos is not alone.

For what it is worth.
