From this site: www.cincinnati.com, I can't play any of the videos from their Video Library. I get the page where they are to be played but no frame or border, just white space. The same videos play in IE 6.0.

I've cleared cache as suggest by the site to no avail. If there is a link to a YouTube video, it plays in Windows Media Player. I have Quick Time installed.
