Watching video on sites

Hi,

When i try to watch any video that is on a website, the picture is mostly green, with bits of yellow and red. Usually i don't have problem watching videos, but on websites i have this problem.

Any ideas what the problem is? Do i need a codec of some kind?

    Possibly. Any more specific details, such as sites viewed, software used (Quicktime, Real Player, Winamp, Media Player).
