Web Cam??

Question

At Fox News web site there a on the right side down towards the bottom, a box with live Baghdad web cam, requires Windows Media Player, which I have version 9.0. I cant get anything but a black screen, I have tried this at different times of the day with the same result. Could someone else try it and if they can get it what do I have to do? TIA. Ronnie

It worked for me a few minutes ago. It took a while before I got a picture,(with my cable connection) but even though it is night time over there you can still see the steets and buildings. Do you get a movie when you click on my link in my previous post ?

Of course it's black, it's just after midnight in Baghdad [grin]. Doesn't work for me now either, nor did it work the last time a tried it a couple weeks ago.
