Computer probs HALP

None of the videos on the various blogs I'm following are showing up. They're all just white blank spaces with those little coloured shapes (red square, green circle, blue triangle on a miniature sheet of paper) in the top left corner. YouTube, however, is working fine, as are The Guardian's own videos on their "video" page. The only problem

Do you have more than one web-browser installed? If so, the first thing would be to try the same sites with a different one.

I only have Explorer. Should I install Firefox and try with that?

OK, I went ahead and installed Mozilla (glad I did, I like it better than Explorer).

Now, everytime I go to a page that has Flash content, Mozilla tells me I need to install a plug-in. I click to allow it to install the missing plug-ins and Mozilla tells me it can't do it and provides a button to manually install, which takes me to the Flash website, where I install -- the installation, according to the website, completes and -- no effect.

I need a cluestick.

Ah, it's OK! After a couple more tries I managed to install it with Firefox. Thanks for the help!
