Video Won't Load
I take online classes and the instructors frequently use videos. When I click on the link (for example, http://videoserver.monroecc.edu/prod...US/ShrekHQ.asx), Windows Media Player (I've also tried VLC) will display the title in the lower left corner but no video or sound will play. I've had friends try to play the videos and they work, so I assume it's a network issue. I've even tried turning off my firewall before clicking on the link. The instructor and the help desk for the system the class uses proved less than helpful. I'm using Vista, WMP 11, Firefox, ZoneAlarm firewall, and a dlink wireless-n router.

Just tried it and got:

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.
