Hi Mague. I found one answer from back in October '06. It may be a bit advanced for you, but I'll post it anyway.

It seems as though it is a plug-in issue - probably related to adobe flash. I'd start with Manage Plug-ins in the IE7 menu. If you don't have success there, you may want to try the registry tweak. BUT, BE WARNED; I have not tested this and messing with the registry can break your system. ALWAYS DO THIS FIRST: select the registry key that you are about to modify, right-click & pull down to Export. Save that key somewhere where you'll be able to find it (double-clicking it later will restore the key to its old values). With that said, here it is:

The problem turned out to be with the new Adobe flash player: I found a thread where someone solved the problem.



Go Start->Run

Type Regedit

Open the following folders:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows NT->Drivers32

On the toolbar at the top, select Edit->New string value

Name it wavemapper

Right click on wavemapper->Modify

Under Value data->enter msacm32.drv

Yep. That's the one. On XP Pro it's
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32
