If using IE11 then check that ActiveX filtering is off, as that will block attachments like this youtube video,

Once I disabled (just click the blue circle in the address bar in IE) activeX filtering for this page the video shows fine.

50/50 on the benefits of activeX filtering in IE11 as, is it a pain or benefit, undecided yet.

I only use the IE to download Opera. :-D Really weird, I quoted the message on the invalid URL error, and I can watch the post on here, but not from the OP's post...

Invalid URL

The URL https://<div style='text-align: center; margin: 20px;'><table summary='table' class='tborder' align='center' border='0' cellpadding='6' cellspacing='1' width='1' style='margin: auto;'><thead><tr><td class='tcat' colspan='2'><a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z04VIhagpko' target='_blank'>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z04VIhagpko</a></td> </tr> </thead><tbody> <tr> <td class='alt1'><object width= contains a port number that is not in the range 1 to 65535.
The reason for the problem may be a mistyped URL, but the URL may also be an attempt to trick you into visiting a website which you might mistake for a site you trust.

That is the error I get. Any ideas would be great! Now that is just odd. I quoted the text in the URL message, and now I can watch the video in my post, but not the OP....

Weird Fred and wonder if Opera uses some sort of activeX filtering also, not used Opera for a while, although a really good browser.

Fred_G · Dec 14, 2013

Yes, it is weird. Just started this a couple of days ago. Maybe my Opera is an old version. Nope, just checked says it is up to date.

DavidGP · Dec 14, 2013

Ah ok

Maybe this may help http://help.opera.com/Windows/12.10/en/activex.html

But this is listed on MGs downloads pages http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/opera.html

WTF!!? I upgraded the Opera. Where are my bookmarks? Don't even see an option to go to bookmarks. No 'home' button... The video works, but nothing else works for me... :cry Will have to play around with the new version some.

Exact same here. And other video links, (a few), have been similar. Latest version of Opera, too. Opera have FUBAR'ed their latest few versions. More secure, theoretically, also screws up some active-X and such links.
Been mine, and many other Opera users experience, anyway. Not enough incidences for me to care much, yet.

For info: the video works fine with Firefox 26.0.
