I can't see the video link.
I get a "need plugins" warning, but no clue as to what's missing.
I have Windows 10 (updated) and office 2011 running Firefox bro user.
@MikeAltman, do you have Microsoft Silverlight installed on your computer? The video is in Silverlight format. Silverlight is compatible with Firefox, and you can download it for free at www.microsoft.com/.../Default.aspx.
If you're still having problems, write back and let me know.
Thanks,

Great tip, thanks very much!
Those of you using Firefox: If you have NoScript in use you will have to allow all. That is all I had to do, refresh the page, and it worked perfectly for me. Good Luck.

@harrisma, do you have Microsoft Silverlight installed on your computer? The video is in Silverlight format. Silverlight is compatible with Firefox, and you can download it for free at www.microsoft.com/.../Default.aspx.
If you're using Firefox (per rondean2000, above), if you have NoScript in use you will have to allow all, and then refresh the page.
