I noticed that when I'm at work, I can view videos of the attractions on Disneyland.com's website, but when I'm at home, I can't. Obviously, it is something set differently. I have the latest Flash, Shockwave, Quicktime, and Adobe reader loaded, but it just shows a still image of an attraction instead of the video.

For instance, if I go here: http://disneyland.disney.go.com/disneyland/en_US/parks/attractions/detail?name=RedwoodCreekChallengeTrailAttractionPa ge

Then I just see a still image of a woman showing kids stuff in the theater, but if I view this same URL at work, it shows a great little Quicktime video of the whole RCCT. I tried changing all kinds of settings, but I can't find the magic one. The only big difference between home and work is that I'm running IE6 at work and IE7 at home.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!!!

Disney has two ways to view their site: high bandwidth and low bandwidth. It's listed at the top near the search function. On the low bandwidth site, you get mostly still images of attractions, while the high bandwidth site gets you the quicktime videos, etc. You are probably viewing the high bandwidth site at work and the low bandwidth site at home. However, even if you switch to the high bandwidth site at home, you may need to empty your cache for the pages to load with the QT movies, etc.

Not only that...I find I sometimes have to switch to low bandwidth and then back to high bandwidth...to get video and high bandwidth to kick back in. Even though it shows that I should already be in the high bandwidth mode.

But once I do that...everything works fine.

Hmmm....I just tried both suggestions...and still the same. :confused:
