Cannot see Office 2007 Video Demos

Something has happened such that I cannot view any of the Office 2007 Video
Demos. Have no problems viewing videos on other web sites. I just get the
"done" at the bottom with a blank screen. Have tried all of the
troubleshooting suggestions there to no avail as well. Couuld someone at
least tell me where to start looking, i.e. I have verified that Adobe flash
works fine, but don't know if that is what is used. I have also turned off
virus scanner/firewalls as well. Running Vista Home Premium with all updates.

If you're referring to the video's on Microsoft's Office website, they
require Silverlight.

> No I can't see them from Help within the desktop. (If I download and save them they run fine ). Have tried using both Firefox and IE as my default browser. Have tested Java and it works fine as does ShockwaveFlash. Also have booted in safe mode, but nothing fixes it. (Could it be someting with McAfee?)
