I did delete firefox browser though cos it was mega slow, could it be that?
The browser I use is ancient (according to a mate) but its ok for most things :D

Possible, with Firefox you need to install plugins that IE 7 come already equipped with, regarding IE 7, it is improving no end and I have no problems with it now as the earlier set up had caused, the other things I always keep up to date are my systems codecs, K-lite do a superb range, I install these on every build to compensate for the lack of browser and media player codecs, just download/install/forget couldn’t be easier, also works with WMP
Once installed goto ‘configuration/fix codecs tool’ and run , then run ‘fix Xvid decoder’

I will be very suprised if that isn’t the fix needed, nearly forgot, when you install, setup asks you to choose ‘windows media player classic’ as the default player, uncheck these as I am sure your existing player is 100% better.

Let em know m8

Thanks Druid, I have installed the base pack and tested playing a video and it works properly again! I havent bothered going to configuration cos its working perfectly.
You are a true legend Druid, many many thanks mate! :D

Cheers Hermy,
