IE has trouble with Flash content

flashflash-playerinternet explorerinternet-explorer-8

For some time now (dunno exactly) Flash doesn't load here when it's embedded using the <embed> element. It works fine, however, if done via <object> alone. So most embedded videos in web pages don't work while YouTube itself works fine.

Any idea what causes this?

Sort of a shotgun solution to weird security settings...

Reset IE settings:

Internet Options > Advanced tab > Reset button
