    Powerpoint Slide Show Works in Firefox, not in IE7

    I have a PowerPoint slide show that I'm trying to add to my site. I find that it works ok in Firefox, but in IE it appears as a file needing to be unzipped.

    Here's the page I'm testing it on: http://www.irstnorcal.com/productsamples.html

    Any help in getting this to open properly in IE will be appreciated

    Thanks.

    you need to make it an avi or compatible movie.

    Some browsers will block pps as it can contain macros which contain viruses so they wont auto play.

    You might also try packing your power point for web display and see if that makes the difference.

      Thanks, Karen.

      you need to make it an avi or compatible movie.

      Can you tell me how to make such a conversion with the slide show in question?

      You might also try packing your power point for web display...

      An internet search of that process yielded instructions far beyond my level of expertise.

      It could be that I may not be able to accomplish this task. Nonetheless, I do very much appreciate your efforts and input.
