Firefox 16.0.1 I am trying to view videos online from a UK website [I am in Canada]. However, I get a message from one site stating that "this content requires that Javascript is enabled." Javascript is enabled and I can see videos from youtube fine. I have disabled all add-ons in case that was the problem but it doesn't help.

Any suggestions welcomed.

To make JavaScript with that proxy site you will have to remove the Remove scripts check mark on the options bar at the top.
That removes the JS error message, but I'm not getting a player when doing that, so it looks that there are other problems as I'm seeing error messages in the error console.

I tried that but it doesn't seem to work. The options when unchecked keep popping back on. I'm not getting any other errors - at least that I can see.
