well it’s not so gentle actually.
It has been brought to my attention that if you are viewing this site using IE7
then the chances are you will not able to view any flash animations
or youtube videos etc.
This is a result of the latest Internet Explorer update.
Microsoft recently lost a legal battle with a patent holder
about the way Internet Explorer displays OBJECTs and EMBEDs in webpages.
Microsoft then decided to update its Internet Explorer browser with changes
requiring user input to display and activate ActiveX based media.
This affects all Flash animations but also other files such as QuickTime,
RealPlayer, Java and Adobe Acrobat among others.
This site is optimized to run on the Firefox browser.
I gave up trying to make it “work” in the various IE flavors a long time ago.
1st image is my site viewed with Firefox the 2nd image is IE7
