    Check for the Call of Duty video, folks, and remember to make the most of each new video.

    I think I must use Adblock as I can't play some of the videos. Do you know where I will find it in order to do what you do please?
    If you're using Firefox, Adblock Plus shows a little icon at the bottom left, with ABP in a red oval. With the Maximiles page loaded, click on this icon to bring up a menu with an option to 'Disable on this page only'.

    If you do not recall adding Adblock to Firefox and do not see the little red oval icon in the bottom left corner on the Firefox status bar, then you may not have Adblock, and the Maximiles videos are not working for a different reason.

    As a further check, click the Firefox Tools menu at the top, and see whether there is an 'Adblock Plus Preferences' entry at the bottom. This would indicate that AdBlock is present.

    If not, click the Add-ons entry at the top of the Tools menu. Then click Extensions and see whether there is an 'Adblock Plus' entry.

    Thanks for trying to help - tried all that but no joy. Tried IE which also wouldn't load the video but strangely did let me vote.

    Don't suppose the words hosts file ring a bell? (if not it's probably not that as you'd probably know if you used it)

    Anyone else unable to log in to Maximiles? I'm entering the right details (even clicked the "Unable to remember password?" link to 100% certain) but every time it says "Invalid username/password". Tried different browsers and same in both too.

    Clicking Sign In brings up a page http://www.maximiles.co.uk/# where clicking Videos does nothing.

    Clicking Sign Up and then clicking Sign In works to log into the account, but then clicking Videos brings up the page http://www.maximiles.co.uk/# as above.

    Best wait for Maximiles to fix their website!

    Thanks, glad it's not just me. Couldn't log in using your method either but obviously a site problem so will just wait and see (have already emailed them)
