Trouble:

One of our readers reported a problem saying: “I always receives ActiveX warning when ever I try to play any flash animations form cd or hard disk location“.

When this problem appears it displays a new window (as shown in the image above) in the containing this message given below:

“To protect your security,Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer.Click here for options…“

You may check the option which says: “Do not show this message again” checkbox and click OK then the page will display without ActiveX content.

Note: In short all the .swf files or flash animations are ActiveX controls which Internet Explorer blocks before playing.

Trouble:

One of our readers Di Chen reported this problem “When I put DVD into my computer, it shows no video, no graphic from media players, I can only hear the sound.”

This type of problem is not uncommon. We often observe some problems in which we record a video on mobile phone, it runs well on phone, but on computer, the video runs without sound.
The most common reason for such problems is Missing Codecs.

What are Codecs ?

Codes are set of well defined Audio/Video standards which are used to decode certain types of audio/video files. Some video formats are modern and use certain codes which may not be installed on your computer. In absence of such codes, the video will not run properly or may not run at all.

Lets see how we can fix out this trouble.
