I cannot figure out what is wrong.
My flash won't load on XP in IE 6.

But in the page it just sits there loading endlessly and never arrives.
I have run into this on so many XP computers.:confused;

I do see it with IE 6, XP.
Maybe you are getting an old copy from your cache. Suggest emptying
your cache and reloading the page.

I have done that several times, the cache isn't the issue. It simply won't load
the movie. It will play if I call it up by itself, but not in the page.

It works on some systems. But on many it doesn't. About 50% of the people tell
us it doesn't work. So if I can't figure this out, I have to scrap flash
completely and i don't want to do that.

I republished, replaced the file and the object tag. Now it is working.

The only difference I could find is in the movie dimensions.

Now here is the really weird part. The old files plays too now, but that may
be a cache issue:
