need help again (re: not being able to open web page movies)

[captain!]

hi, thank you to those who responded to my last question.

my latest problem is that i cannot open any movies that i come across on the
internet.

i always get the message that the page is unavailable when i click on the
links. this problem occurs at every web site i visit.

here is an example of a typical page that i cannot open movies on. i watched
these movies with no problem when i had Win2K pro:
