thanks, found it, and it is on, as is the other one I found there, play sounds on web pages, but still no joy with audio captchas playing.

I really don't want to use firefox, as I have had far too many issues with pages reloading all the time, and being taken up to the top again, and having to find where I was again, (snarl!) have you got any idea where that setting is in IE please? as I can't seem to find it, thanks.

Subject: audio captchas won't play issue. hello all, have recently had a machine upgraded from XP to windows 7 ultimate 64bit, but am having a problem with audio captchas. they just won't play, and I can't seem to find what the problem is. apart from running IE 11 instead of IE 8, I have tried to use more or less the same software, I am reasonably sure that when it was running XP, it used to use quicktime for most audio captchas, and they played with no problems. so I put quicktime on this machine, but they won't play. I have gone through all of the settings I can find, in both IE and quicktime, and can't find anything that would prevent them from playing. any suggestions as to how I can sort this issue out please? Simon
