How can I stop Auto videos (from MSN, etc.) running?

Whenever I click on an article on MSN (or other news sites) automatically linked videos download and start to play.

How can I stop this?

Thank you

Usually, it is a function of the Web site that you have no control over.

  • Can't stop the video from AutoPlay

    I had this problem for a few versions of Captivate now - still can't figure out in Captivate 9. I put a MP4 video on a slide. I started playing through three slides. Which works very well. But I can't get it to STOP AUTO play when the slide is displayed. I tried to make a break in the world, I could find a break action. I don't want to bring down the timeline - I want it to display when the slide is displayed, but not to play - because I would have a text to explain the video until it just starts to play. I have a button that will start to play. I could use a still of a frame and have it play on the next slide, but that seems just silly to have to go through all that.

    What Miss me? It is difficult to do this stop playing. UGH.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    You're referring to multiple slides synchronized video?

    This type of video is locked to the timeline. So unless you have something to pause the timeline before the beginning of the video (for example a click box or a button) then the video will play as soon as the object enters the timeline.

    If you want to have the option of video plays DO NOT until the user clicks something, your original question indicates you know from the video in a different slide work.  Or your other alternative is to use the video of the event.

  • How can I stop Windows Messenger from starting automatically

    I have never used Windows Messenger.  I recently bought / implement a system refurbished with XP Home - after about a month of use, the Herald began popping up automatically whenever I start the machine, or when I open Outlook Express (and immediately requires a screen name access code (whenever it starts, even if I gave him once to satisfy) (, so I have two things to cancel).

    As I say, he began to do this by himself without conscious action on my part, a few weeks after the introduction of the machine. I had an older XP machine for 6 years and never seen it happen.

    Two questions: 1) is this a normal behavior to require a name to screen EACH time it starts? I would have thought that it would save one associated with the connection.

    (2) how can I do to stop the automatic aperture? I don't necessarily want to kill-I can actually try to use it someday. I just that it quietly hide in the system tray, as it has always done before.

    To stop the Messenger to start with Windows:

    (1) right-click on the Windows Messenger icon in the system tray.
    2) click Open.
    (3) in Windows Messenger, click on tools, then click Options.
    4) click the Preferences tab.
    (5) in the preferences, uncheck the "run Windows Messenger when Windows starts" and "Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background", and then click Ok.

    To prevent Outlook Express from loading Messenger

    (1) open Outlook Express
    2) click Tools, Options
    3) click on general tab
    (4) uncheck the box to automatically log on to Windows Messenger
    5) click OK Microsoft Security MVP, 2004-2009

  • Windows 8 - How can I stop Auto Select mouse

    I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 8. I can't understand how to stop auto mouse clicking on everything I could hover over too long. I checked the settings and checked for double click, but it still happens. What else could be the cause?

    Thank you!

    Ed, I found this one.
    Control Panel/All Control Panel Items and mouse

    in the window that opens scroll down to 'Activate edge scans' and uncheck the box, click on 'apply '.
    I'm sure that's where you used to be able to disable the auto click in Windows 7, but as I said in my response to Mohammad, of course the heads of Geek decided it wasn't a pretty difficult place to hide the option to disable this annoying option so they hid somewhere else or got rid of him quite... probably because some head geek has wet dreams more Click Automatic and agreed everyone should enjoy it as well as he does.
