Skyfire. I'm able to get flash video working on the CBS site, but not Hulu. I thought maybe I needed to sign up for an account, so I did, but I still get the same error message.

I recommend Iris....really fast for simple searches....absolutely love it. I do have skyfire on my phone too but I ONLY use it for flash sites which isn't often.

the problem is that on your initial Skyfire install, Skyfire looked for a datacenter to use and as it seems often to happen with Skyfire, it connected to a UK center. And since it connected to a UK center, and Hulu is not available in the UK you are being blocked. the easy way to deal with this is to delete your Skyfire pref file in the Skyfire folder which is in the Application Data folder...heh...then start up Skyfire again. If it is still blocked, just try again. Luckily I connected to a US data center on my third try. Some have tried upwards of 25 times I have read.

That did the trick!!! SWEEETTT!!!! I had to delete the pref file about 10 times, but it finally worked. Supposedly Opera 9.5 will have full flash. I definitely prefer Opera over Skyfire, so hopefully it's true.

[Phantom27]

Wait for Opera 9.7, hopefully it will include Flash 10.
