alright. for some odd reason i cant listen to music on the internet. i cant hear any audio what-so-ever on internet explorer. i can listen to music and watch videos on windows media player and stuff. but nothing when i want to listen to music on internet explorer. so i went into my sound and all my sound settings are set for it. and i have it to where its supose to play a sound when i click too. but it doesnt work. i can watch videos on like youtube.com but it doesnt play the audio with it..any thoughts?
 
You could first have a lool at your internet settings. In internet explorer go to tools, options, advanced. The scroll down to multimedia and ensure that play sounds from webpages is enabled.

Cheers :)
 
i have everything checked under multimedia besides the "show image download placeholder" and my speaker settings are all up and nothing is muted
 
If the enable sound is enabled these are a few other thoughts:

- Are you running the most recent version of internet explorer
- Have you got flash player 8 installed (some websites require this for sound playback - Ensure its an updated version)
- You could have some spyware that is affecting IE, try running spybot and see if any browers hyjacks, spyware etc are present
- If these dont work download firefox, i would highly recomend using firefox as your internet browser over internet explorer even if you get the sound to work. It is free and is much safer, see if the sound works in firefox, if it does then continue using it. Link to firefox below.

alrighty. i'll try that. i hope it works. i just ran registry mechanic and spyware doctor. i dont tihnk it worked though. so i'll try firefox.
 
oh. and im running on the new beta internet explorer and audio worked on it for a little bit..then again. i uninstalled "windows movie maker" and it said some other programs might not work if i uninstalled it
 
ok. i swear this is my last reply for now. i just did a system restore to the day before i uninstalled it and it reinstalled it and its still not working..im really baffled...
