Windows 7 RC watching streaming video.
I'm not able to watch shows on ABC.com. It won't allow me to load the flash player needed to watch online episodes. It either wants XP or Vista. Does anyone know how to get around this?

JTC - Hmm.. Weird. You'd they'd be more interested in the version of your browser and not your OS. Not sure what all you can do about it - except maybe click the link at the bottom for their tech support and tell them off... Given IE 8 is available for both XP and Vista, I don't see what the big problem is for running it on Windows 7. For the record, I used IE 8 and I even fired up Firefox 3.0.11 (which they CLAIM to support) and got the same stupid messge on both instances. They've probably not sorted out Windows 7 as yet with regards to the DRM built into their system. I suppose there IS one long shot... XP Mode... Though I wouldn't expect the result to be really dazzling.. And of course, your hardware has to support virtualization.
