    There is a big video on the page. That’s why it is in the Videos section.

    This is really good to say that there is a big video on the page but the property to video is set to INVISIBLE and thats why its not visible. Enjoy :)

    Firefox had gratuitously made itself my default browser, and all attempts to set it back to IE using the standard method (ticking the box “Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser” on the Tools/Internet Options Programs tab) had no effect. Your method did the trick. Many thanks.
