just upgraded to windows 7 as well as the latest version of firefox. Flash movie sites such as youtube play without difficulty. It is only sites such as http://www.liveduvalstreet.com/crowdcam.htm that do not work. before these sites worked without difficulty.

You need the Windows Media Player to see that cam and your plugins list doesn't show that plugin.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player#Missing_plugin

Thanks for the response. That did indeed solve the problem. Figured it out about an hour after posting. Interestingly it works fine on my wifes computer (vista64) without the wmp plug in.
