I'm not sure why snortin would say that. MSE gives no such warning and I watch it using my Firefox browser.
No plug in's or downloads needed here, just click to play.

Hmmm, ok I also use windows 7 too, but with firefox instead. Try that instead of exploder?
What was the plug in it was asking it to use? I'll try it here on a different machine and see if it wants the same plug in.

I don' know what the plugin is. Norton 360 wouldn't let it download.

Try Firefox.
When I'm at work my machine does a scan with MSE (free) and doesn't alert on anything odd with plug in's associated with viooz.co/movies

If they are amplified, they all work pretty much the same as long as you're not in a valley or too far from the transmitter sites.
One of the best things the FCC ever did was mandate commercial broadcasters to transmit digitally instead of analog. My channel master antenna is only up 15' and on most evenings I get 16-18 stations between Rockford and chicago and the Quad cities.

I have a Mohu Leaf antenna that works quite well for me.
I bought it while I lived in Portland, now I'm in the boonies and it still pulls in the stations nicely.

Its an indoor antenna, very thin and I mount it on a window with sticky pads.
