Administrator/Limited User Accounts - cant view online streamin vi

I'm the only user of my home PC running on WinXP (SP2 pack), IE7, Sygate
firewall.
As precaution, I have 1 Admin and 1 Limited User accounts.
Have been able to regularly watch streamed video from this site
http://news.kbs.co.kr/asx/news_player2007.htm?kind=news&id=1469420&bid=0&isfull=0&url1=LzIwMDcvMTIvMDIvMjAuYXNm&url2=LzIwMDcvMTIvMDIvMzAway8yMC5hc2Y=

Then several days ago, I no longer could. An error msg would pop up and the
page would close itself or hang and I have to go to Task Manager to close the
unresponding webpage.

However, only if I am logged into my Admin a/c, I can still watch video on
that same webpage.

I'm unable to troubleshoot what's wrong. Could it be Active-X that requires
installation everytime I visit that webpage and can be installed only on
Admin a/c ?

I dont recall doing anything other than allow Realplayer as apps in Sygate
Firewall.

Managed Add-Ons in my Admin a/c has a shorter list and yet I can view the
streamed video while my Limited User a/c has a longer list of Add-Ons but yet
I can view the video.

I even upgraded my Limited User a/c to Admin, then visited the same webpage,
in hope whatever active-x or add-ons would install. They seemed to have bec I
could view the video.

BUT the moment I reverted from Admin to Limited User for that same user
name, the problem is back.

Help pls !

Thx.

Malke, thank you for responding. I tried using IE7 with my Limited Account
with add-ons disabled. In the address bar, an url called "run once"
appeared. I ignored it because in the bottom left hand corner was the word
"done" with a yellow triangle over it. I double-clicked on the triangle,
and got a script error screen.

The screen read: Line (blank)
Character (blank)
Altogether 5 lines, but none of them contained any data.
Event View does not contain any information, either.

I will take advantage of the links you sent, but I have my doubts that they
will be of help.

The links I gave you are obviously for staying safe online and not for
fixing Internet Explorer.

Post your question about IE in its newsgroup, with all available details
so the IE experts (of which I am not one) can help you.
