Security Settings In WinMedia Player After SP2 Install

[Fizzikal]

After installing SP2, Windows Media Player won't play Shockwave
Flash Object videos and get message "Your Current Security Settings
Do Not Allow This Action". Before installing SP2, WMP played such
files with IE security settings set to default. Search of MS sites for info
on this didn't help and have no idea what to change in security settings
to enable viewing of such video clips. Any info much appreciated.
