    HELP! BBC video freezes after 8 seconds but all other news websites work perfectly.

    I've been having this happen for a week or two now and I don't know how to solve it. Literally every other video adobe based video source I have tried works perfectly but for some reason the h264 video on the BBC's website will only play for about 8 seconds before it freezes. Prior to two weeks ago the BBC's website worked perfectly for me.

    Things I have tried which have not work: Different web browsers (it does the same thing in the latest IE, FF, and Chrome), uninstalling and reinstalling flash, burning incense and chanting prayers to cthulhu.

    I've also googled my problem and found at least one other guy who has the exact same problem but so far both of us still can't watch videos on the BBC News website. Help me tech jedi of apolyton, you're my only hope.

    People who have same problem:

    Well, ****. Yahoo answers actually came through for once. The problem had to do with page zoom and hitting cntl+0 has solved the problem.
