  VE Home Page Question
August 15, 2006 9:50:02 AM    View the profile of C-3PX2 
When I log onto the VE Home page I get a message in the way that service pack 2 does it, at the top of the screen.
It says:

[?] This website wants to run the following add-on: 'Windows Media Player Shim' from the 'Microsoft Corporation'. If you trust the website and the addon and want to allow it to run click here.

Has anyone else got the message, and sould I download it?

There is nothing wrong with fear.
You need never be ashamed of it, as long as it dosen't stop you functioning.
Fear is your natural warning system; it keeps you alive so that you can can fight.
Show me a man who isn't afraid, and i'll show you a fool who is a danger to his entire ship.

I've never seen that before, but I presume its because your computer has something like AVG and is looking for 'insecure items' and the like.  If it is keeping you from viewing the site, I suppose you might try it, but it looks like you're getting in here fine so- I wouldn't bother.  Maybe that's a question for Kad or somebody of the sort though.  Keep rockin.

( Just discovered this place existed, btw... )

I've not seen that message before or know what the 'Windows Media Player Shim' does. 

Here are some questions for you:
- What browser are you using and what version?
- What OS are you using and what version?
- Do you only get this message from the main VE page?

Hmm.  Might be an issue with the IE 7 and the google ads or something.  I'd recommend using Firefox.

Internet Explorer is the problem. Don't use it. And if you can get the internet you can get Mozilla.
