Default Windows Live Mail Feeds Problem

I'm using Windows Live Mail to view my Newsfeeds but on some of the feeds when the page comes up in the reading pane displays this error:-

A Windows Internet Explorer Window comes up and says:-

One or more ActiveX controls could not be displayed because either:
1) Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page, or
2) You have blocked a publisher of one of the controls.

The same page displays fine in IE8 so I don't think its my Internet settings and I haven't blocked any publisher so I'm a bit confused

Any ideas?

PS. This message seems to comes up if there is a video on the page

Ok, 2 things to do here:

1) Update FlashPlayer to the latest version: Adobe - Downloads

2) Go to Tools -> Internet Options and choose the Security tab. Make sure that live.com is in the Trusted Sites zone list (click on the "Sites" button"). Also, make sure all Security zones are at the default level -- if the "Set Default" buttons are all greyed out, then it is done.
