I have exactly the same problem – my streaming hosted Silverlight 2 RTW apps run fine under FireFox but fail under IE 6, 7, 7

Let me know if you find a solution.

Wow. the HardRock page crashed my IE7 completely. Twice!

Using Firefox, I looked at the page source and it looks like they aren’t using the Silverlight Streaming service. That would explain it – the Hardrock folks have updated their own service.

Hi Rakesh – that is really odd, I am getting the same thing as you now. I don’t recall if I had it working under IE before. It works fine for me in Firefox 3, but NOT under IE7. Do you have FireFox installed, and if so, could I trouble you to test it under FireFox? Maybe Silverlight Streaming is not updated all the way to RTW after all.

When I go to your deeplol page, it asks me to get silverlight. Even after I install and restart all instances of IE I still get the same install required screen.
