Can't see a webcam with final release version....

Does anyone else who has a fresh install of final version have trouble seeing
the webcam at this address?
http://www.thesquire.com/

I had no problem with the betas, but now I got nothing but a red x.
And it's not prompting me to install any active x controls....
thanks...

Nothing wrong with your computer... I'm running XP on mine right now
and also get a red x. It's because the URL for the webcam image is
incomplete. It's pointing at: http://www.thesquire.com/ ie- no image!

Maybe they *could* see it before but not now... not unless they have
the page cached and are looking at an old copy. I've looked at it just
now from a WinXP system and from a Win2000 system both show the red x.
Right clicking on the red x and selecting properties reveals that the
address (URL) is http://www.thesquire.com, in other words not a
reference to an image file.

Contact the webmaster and tell him to fix his page.
