    I discovered that the problem only occurs if the underlying Flash video is set to autoplay. IE9 should be ignoring the underlying Flash but for some reason it doesn’t. I can get around the problem with some complicated browser sniffing. But I’d like to find a simpler solution.

    The videos — both popup and regular — work fine in Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera and IE8. (IE8 of course doesn’t recognize HTML5 video tags.) Right now I have a workaround where the video tags don’t get generated if the browser is IE. (My video tags are generated via shortcodes.)

    It indeed seems to be a Skype problem. I made it go away on my computer by installing the most current version of Skype.

    Unfortunately, a great many of my blog readers use Skype and I suspect that most, like me, are using an old version.

    Thus I will continue to gimmick phone numbers in my posts so that Skype won’t recognize them as such.

    The problem seems only to occur on computers that have Skype installed. Maybe I messed up when i disabled Skype before.

    I suspect it’s a Skype problem, not a wordpress problem.

    I fear that didn’t work.

    Well, my blog is working again but I’m not sure I would call the problem resolved. A while ago, I installed postmash. I never used it, but thought I might at some time. It caused no problems until I got the weird error message. But I disabled and unistalled it and my posts now display in the proper order.
