I have a Dell desktop and ever since I updated to windows 7 from xp the audio preview links on this music website I go to don't work. Any idea why this might be? They still play music when I click them on my iPhone. Here is the site, I tried adding it to "exclusions" in Avast but no luck.

Try lowering the security settings in Internet Explorer and test again. If that works, then try the same in Firefox.

Didn't change anything. I also added it as an exclusion in Avast. Any other suggestions? Is it working for you?

It works fine here... I have found though that this runs using JavaScript. Perhaps something else is blocking JavaScript like maybe AdBlock or another extension?

When I disable Avast web protection it works.

Avast has sandboxing, which isolates your websites, I wonder if that's that, or as mentioned some security setting with Avast. FWIW, I've been running with Avast no problem at all. Are you on the latest version?
