    I got the same thing.....then the diagnostic said the Forum was showing errors and that in order to profile. That it needed to be debugged. I called an IT guy. He said he would have to check it out as it may not be anything on our end.

    Then I checked a couple of other sites. Videos work fine.

    This appears to be a problem with a recent change to Internet Explorer.

    We are not the only forum to be experiencing this issue:

    Suddenly Videos Viewed on Internet Explorer Show As Black Box Only

    As you will see on that thread, and referenced here (Microsoft Edge - Wikipedia), Microsoft is discontinuing Internet Explorer and replacing it with the Edge browser. Those of you on Windows 10 can update to it, but for those on earlier Windows installations, Edge is not available. If you can, I suggest switching to a web browser like Chrome or Firefox. I will continuing looking for a work around for those on IE. Right now it looks like a deliberate attempt by Microsoft to move people to the new browser, and I don't expect it will be reversed on their end.

    Not surprised. Funny, I get that black box thing on my computer at work, which uses Windows 7, but not on my home desktop, which uses 8. (Have I mentioned lately how much I despise Windows 8?)

    @Docthehun I had the same issue start a couple days ago, and read this thread, so I was going to switch to Fire fox. I was also having problems with random websites not loading. I was having the websites not loading issue on my phone also, unless I turned off wifi and used my data plan. On a hunch this morning, I unplugged my wifi router for a couple minutes and then started it back up. Everything is working perfectly again now. Just incase you have this issue again, that may help.
