I am using Media Player 11 in Windows Vista and I cannot seem to play videos
imbedded on websites. If someone sends me a WMV file in email, I can play it
just fine. Just not ones on websites. I do not get an error code. Only a
pop-up box that says what I have in the subject line - plus "The server might
not be available. Verify that you are connected to the network and that your
proxy settings are correct."

A friend of mine also has MP 11 and Vista and it works just fine.
