CNBC plus streaming video problems

I subscribed to the CNBC plus streaming video service and ive been having problems that I was wondering if anyone else has or knew how to fix. I would also like to know what codec they use.

The problem is when I go to watch videos i get a loading animation it buffers and when it starts to play there is just a black screen with audio playing.

I do not have this problem anywhere else. Youtube and similar sites work fine. Video advertisements on the CNBC work fine.

I have tryed the following:
-download the latest versions of Internet explorer, Adobe flash, Windows media player
-download all the codecs i can find
-clear my temporary internet files cach
-disable all antivirus; firewalls; security i can find
-uninstall adobe flash then manually scan the registry for keys that are related to flash, delete them then reinstall flash
-format my harddrive; reinstall windows xp media edition (or something) as oposed to xp home which i had before
-download the latest video driver for my video card
-screw with internet explorer options
-yelling
-using many different types and combinations of profanity including several new words modified from existing prophanity
 
Quote from Samadhi:

same here...I re-signed with them yesterday...froze. Flash issues too...try Firefox to get onto CNBC.

when i try to use firefox i get:

Internet Explorer 6 or later with Flash 8 or later is required
to use the CNBC Plus video player.
 
An important think i forget to mention is that i have 2 room mates (we all share the internet), it works fine on both of their computers one has xp one has vista.
 
Quote from Htrader:

How much of a transmission delay is there when comparing the video feed to live tv?

It is about 5 second delay compared to cable for the USA Session.

I don't know about the Asia and the Europe Session.
