Many visitors who use ie have had trouble with the videos playing on the web-site, including myself. Firefox seems to be ok and therefore is a good alternative.
Try this for ie:
  • go to control panel
  • select internet options
  • select security
  • select custom level
  • toggle with sections to enable video play and esp 'active x'

Brad,
I would suggest you change the code in your web site for video view to save people changing their settings use default windows media player it will then play in any browser the full code to be inserted is:-

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>BRAD BIOMETRICS</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<div align="center">
  <OBJECT
CLASSID="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95"
CODEBASE="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/
 controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"
TYPE="application/x-oleobject" align="middle"
STANDBY="Loading Microsoft Windows Media Player components..."
ID="mediaPlayer">
    <PARAM NAME="fileName"
