Hello,
I cannot open and listen to music samples. A message window appears and
disappears before I could read what it says, and even when I click on "open
in new window" the window shuts down in one second without opening the
content.
I have already set the security settings to allow or ask before allowing
just about everything, accepted pop-ups, switched off the secure mode,
checked whether temporary files are in the right place, and restarted my
laptop. Yet my problem remains.
Could someone help me with a suggestion in a very detailed style and simple
language? (I don't understand any of the jargon used here)

Many thanks,
--
Barbara
 
Barbara, what site are you at to try to listen to music samples? Can you give
us a direct link to one of the samples that breaks?

Have you scanned your computer for malware recently? Also, please turn
secure mode back on. I presume you mean Internet Explorer Protected Mode? You
really, really, want that on.

Your question may already be answered in Windows Vista Security:
