Problem watching Flash Videos
Currently all I get is a message stating, "This video can't be played. Please try another.", on this site; http://xfactor.itv.com/.

If I ByPass from the system tray icon, the message disappears after a page reload and the videos can be watched.

Could someone please help me to understand how I can allow the viewing of the flash videos on that site without bypassing BFilter.

Thank you in advance.

It turns out the movie URLs contain the word "ads", which is why they get blocked.
This may be solved by adding the following to urls.local (Tray Icon -> Configuration -> Advanced -> urls.local):
Code:
ALLOW *.flv

RE: Problem watching Flash Videos
Whilst on the subject of ads, here's a new problem on my newly installed system with new browser.

Whenever I access a page containing those irritating underlined words which popup a box, BFilter prevents that happening; however…

I receive a popup(s), about opening or saving the file:
[url="http://b.imagehost.org/view/0993/ads.gif"]See popup screen capture here[/url]

Any ideas how to elliminate it?
Note, because I was stupid enough to name the file ads.gif, you loy probably wont see it when you access the image host, so here's a renamed version!
