Hi everybody, I'm having a lot of problems here lately playing embedded video in IE7. What's happening is that when attempting to load them, I get "This site wants to run Windows Media Extension control" pop-ups. I allow it, and the videos will not load.

When I attempt to reload the page, I get the same pop-up again, like I never allowed it. And it just does this over and over again. I tried to Google the issue but no matter how specific I got it just linked me to a load of irrelevant pages.

What version of WMP are you using and is there a later version that may be more compatible with IE7?
