Why can't I view a powerpoint from a website?

[Guest]

I can view a powerpoint on my computer. I uploaded some ppt presentations to
my website and I can not view them from my home computer. I can view them
from my computer at work and other people have no trouble viewing them. I
have looked at my settings and can't seem to find anything that is stopping
it. I have turned off pop up blocker and my firewall...no help.

Any suggestions?

Do you have PowerPoint on your home computer? If not there is a free viewer
from Microsoft. http://www.microsoft.com/office/000/viewers.asp

Yes, I do have powerpoint on my home computer. I have no trouble viewing a
presentation. I just can't view it from my website. When I click on "open",
it acts like the presentation is going to open, but it never does. It does
not give an error, it just doesn't open. If I click on "save", I can save it
from the website and then view it from my computer. I just want to be able
to click "open" to view it. I used to be able to do this, but can't now.

How long did you wait? Is it possible that it is just taking time to load?

I have waited for a long time...plenty of time for it to load.

How about your security settings in IE?
