I was notified by several people that the cannot see the video.
I have verified that it was a Javascript and IE6 compatibility problem. (I only tested on Safari and IE7.)

On the way to fix the problem, I have found problems with Firefox on Macintosh as well.

Hopefully, now they are fixed.

If you still have problems, please let me know.
