And to clarify...

To get Fox News Working:
1) Download and install the Greasemonkey extension from
http://www.greasespot.net
2) After installing Greasemonkey, install the Fox News Friendly Video
script

This will kill the ads in the Fox News Video Section completely and
allows the videos you actually want to see to display properly.

Cheers,

Chris
