Hi!
 
How do I check the status of the progress bar you referred to in your  
reply? 
 
Right now, I would like to view the final episode of CBS's The Good Wife  
available online at 
_http://www.cbs.com/primetime/the_good_wife/video/?vs=Full%20Episodes_ 
(http://www.cbs.com/primetime/the_good_wife/video/?vs=Full%20Episodes) 
I don't see any bar.  All I see is the actual show  that keeps  starting 
and stopping
 
I don't have a desktop only my laptop and am connecting to the net via  a 
wireless Cricket device but have had the problem no matter where I connect  
using this laptop.  Note: I have Windows XP on my laptop.

This can  happen if your streaming rate is slower than the video speed. What
does the  progress bar on your player show? If it shows that you have 
nothing
in the  buffer, then your connection speed is too slow, or the site is
overloaded.  If this happens only with your laptop and not your desktop, I
might assume  that you are connecting your laptop through a wireless
connection and the  speed of this connection is a bit slow for the video.

If the speed is  not the problem, and you are getting adequate buffering,
then we would need  to know more about your setup, program you are using to
view the video, and  your version of Windows before we can make  additional
suggestions.

I hope that I can do an adequate job explaining my  problem. I can't seem 
to 
view an online video on my laptop without  interruption every few  seconds. 
It seems to start and stop  throughout - like it is getting  stuck.  Any 
ideas or settings  on my laptop that I could check or   readjust?
