My host company says it is because of my flash (they don't provide coding support). I thought that my flash code was correct, I used both the <object> and <embed> tags. I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I have to post my whole script.

That's weird, I have had complaints from some people about it crashing, and having to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to fix it. That is what happens in my IE when I try it. It works fine in Firefox, though.

Dude, it's IE - of course it won't work. It's not your fault.

Seriously though, its their computer. Unless you load some wierd apps into your site (like Java, or something) then yeah, it may be is your fault, but otherwise, it's the fact that they use IE and it's their problem.

Tell them to get Firefox. Or, contact your host, as it may be some sort of virus...

just stick a little message at the top of the page:

"This site is designed to run in Mozilla Firefox, if you use another browser errors may occur"

Then they cant complain because you warned them.
