This will only allow Active X Plugins to run during your visit to FoodlandForum.com. Upon entering another website, you will again be prompted to allow Active X to run (if that website utilizes this technology).
Cannot Play Audio?
If you are unable to play/hear the audio throughout our site on your computer, you might try one or more of the following options:
Are your speakers turned on ? (power light visible on your speakers & volume turned up)
Turn the power to your speakers on, and turn up volume to a reasonable level.
Are your speakers muted?
Look at the bottom right of your screen next to the clock display for a little icon that resembles a speaker. If it is not visible you may have an < arrow hiding other icons. Click that < arrow and it will show the hidden icons. Find your speaker icon and double click it. This will bring up your computer's mixer. Be sure that all of your sliders are turned up to at least half way or more. Be sure that none of the MUTE boxes have a check mark in them, especially the WAVE control. If there is a check mark in any of these boxes, un-check them. (see illustrations below)

The minimum Windows Media requirements for content played at FoodlandForum.com is version 9 or higher.
