[Crosspost to IE General]
Post by fredI do not think it is OS related or IE version.
I didn't say it was. [BTW, you're running IE8, not IE7, in Win7 RC.]
Moving on, we're going to deal with the WinXP SP3 machine for now.
Is this sudden, new behavior or an ongoing problem?
1. Does the behavior persist if you start IE in No Add-ons mode? To start
IE in No Add-ons mode:
=> Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without
Add-ons; or
=> Start | (All) Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet
Explorer (No add-ons).

2. Does the behavior persist if you Reset IE Advanced settings (RIES)?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 <= Read before using!
3. Does the behavior persist if you boot into Safe Mode with Networking?
[Careful! Only remain in Safe Mode just long enough to test!]
4a. What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?
4b. Has a Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this machine
(e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)?

the same does happen in Vista Ultimate SP1 IE 7
and the same does happen in Windows 7 RC IE 7(?)
I do not think it is OS related or IE version.

Post by fredI have noticed that it is impossible to re-play the streaming
video when the Internet connection is lost.
Why it is so?
After playing for the first time it is possible to see "buffering" at the
start of the play and sometimes during the play when the connection is slow,
which is quite normal.
Why, when replaying the same there is still "buffering" visible at the start
but it never is being shown again during the replay?
