    If you have firefox, please go here and tell me if you can watch the streaming feed.

    I have the beta, and have also had this problem with FF2. Many sites do not load flash properly and some ask me to install it over and over. My question is, since I have installed it, is there something else I need to do here? I can;t ever get streams through FF.

    So what you are saying is you must use IE for this link? Try the link in IE, I can't get it to scroll down.

    The live feed doesn't play at all in Minefield, plays well with slight choppiness in IE8 beta 1 and plays very well with barely any choppiness in IE7.

    Thanks Calvin for some reason, my scroll bar won't work on IE7, but the feed does work.

    Thanks for checking.

    If you are using AdBlocker or AdBlocker Plus, disable it and then reload the page. It should play then, mine did.

    It also played flawlessly in Opera and IE7 for me.
