What web browser do you use. It sounds like your security settings have been set too high to allow the movies to be viewed.

you should try to run your these settings on enable. i have had this problem before and it this seems to fix it. go to internet options>security>customelevel. from there you could try to reset custome settings to reset to medium. than under the "run active x and plug-ins" go down to, run activex and plug ins and set it to enable, than the one below that, the script activex controls, check it to enable. Hit ok, than apply and ok again. retry ie and check the site again.

You might want to choose the "Prompt" option instead of "Enable" for Active X; allowing any and all Active X controls to run makes your system more prone to infection by spyware, trojans, hijacks, etc. With the options set to "Prompt" at least you'll be asked for permission before a control is allowed to run.
