Hi,
Clutching at straws here, so just need someone to check it for me please?
Could you go to the BBC News site:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/ and try to watch a news broadcast using the WMP plug-in? (I'm using WMP 11 on XP Pro). I can't get any broadcasts at all and the BBC helpdesk are not being very responsive. Is it possible that Avast web scanning could cause a problem with streaming video like this? I'm wondering about 'Exceptions' in the web scanner of some sort... I can use the WMP plug-in on other sites incidentally...
Anyway, it may be a 'red herring' and just that it's broken at their end - be nice to have that confirmed! Thanks very much in advance...
