Be Aware that Some sites with Shockwave content
(end in .Swf) are Not Displaying get a blank page If you have upgraded to Internet Explorer 7.0 Frown
It is not your fault and you can do nothing about it until Microsoft issues a KB patch through its update service (date unknown)
I also have noticed some Flash sites like www.flashearth.com are malfunctioning too. Can anyone see anything on this site? (Many end in.JSP)
Here is the latest info we are aware of off Microsofts Forums

works correctly on my machine, WinXP SP2 Media Edition. I have IE 7.0

Do you have any of the Add ons shut off in the Tools/Manage Add ons command line?

Have you done the usual diagnostic steps...empty temporary internet files and cookies?

Are you using IE or the AOL version of IE?

Have you checked to see the status of your flash player installation?

See this picture: Click Here
Note the above picture is for IE 7.0 only, earlier version can see their objects in the IE Tools menu/General Tab/View Files/View Objects

For your Information Dwight
The IE browser integrates into the AOL program without any issues
and the ActiveX controls are now turned off by default but you can turn them on selectively if you want "al a Firewall"
Maybe able to force it to work if it is opened on the IE page not off the AOL page (as a workaround?) And switch the ActiveX controls on from there ? Roll Eyes
No such thing on the AOL browser page Frown
