Strange video problem
Boggin:
I wonder if it could be worth playing with the hardware acceleration slider to see if that makes any difference.

? I'm willing to try anything where would I find that?
Boggin:
It's really more to do with easing the load on the CPU but I can't think of anything else at the moment.

IE can be a strange beast, but as I can view your example video okay in Win 7/IE 11 with pretty much default settings and you can view okay in Chrome - does that mean it's a Flash Player/Shockwave problem or what for some sites ?
Thinking out aloud :)

Following your outline thinking, I've already completely uninstalled Flash Player and Shockwave using their own installers and then reinstalled them. That also had no effect.

See what the sites are like with Firefox. https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/new/
In FF you will need to go to Adobe and install Flash Player but it doesn't use the ActiveX component that IE does, but I'm not sure how that would help eliminate the problem in IE if it's an ActiveX issue. - watch out for the McAfee check box.
There's been another Flash Player update released today.
I'm going to have to shoot off now as it's getting on for 12.30am here in the UK and I've got a busy day tomorrow.
