After your comment, I logged into PBS and watched Frontline. Close 
firefox down and try again. As we're noting in another thread, firefox 
appears to be getting wonky on us. I just watched a youtube video stall 
out on the video while the sound continued. Never saw that before. 
Something it getting evil... almost like it's a caching issue or 
something like it. But, I do have videos on PBS working here. Try 
chrome. It's starting to look better and better to me. You are in the US 
and not being blocked in any fashion by the Queen's wonks?? Ric
