Hulu working in 'Hulu Desktop' but not Firefox or Chrome

[samh785]

So I just went on hulu a few minutes ago and got the message:
Sorry, we are unable to stream this video. Please check your internet connection and try again. when I tried to watch a video.

My internet connection is working 100% fine, and even more strange (and hopefully revealing) is that hulu works fine in the 'Hulu Desktop' software for linux. I thought I saw a thread in the cafe about a similar problem but I was unable to locate said thread. Any thoughts or help appreciated.

No fix as of yet, sorry I've been looking too. Best thing to do is to send an email to Hulu support, maybe it will help

Hulu is working fine for me with no problems.

Hulu is working fine for me with no problems.
Maybe this is a location based issue? I live in Vermont, USA and Lowsky lives in New York, USA. Interesting... <confused>Why does my Hulu desktop software work though? </confused>
