Hey all,

Quick question (I didn't search for it, I'm sorry) - wondering if there's a workaround at the CNN.com web site where they won't play video if you're not on firefox or safari? Just curious. Omniweb is my main and I don't really generally pull up other browsers just to want to watch web clips.

Omniweb....it really beats the llama's a.... oh wait, that's winamp. :)
 
Hi,

You should be able to get around this in OmniWeb - open site preferences for cnn.com and change "Identify to web servers and scripts as" to Safari 3 (it's on the "Other" tab). You'll need to reload the page.
