Ok. Here goes. I have 100% UP TO DATE Windows XP Home,
Windows Media Player 9, Direct X current version, 768 MB
RAM, 1.3Ghz processor, dual 80G HD's, etc etc etc. I can
play any videos or music in Windows Media Player JUST
FINE. I am totally current with all updates/drivers. I
CANNOT however click on a link, say at MSNBC.com's web
site where a video clip pops up in a separate window
_other than_ Windows Media Player. All of the links
are "dead", nothing will play. All the response I got was
to make sure I have all the latest and greatest... I DO!
Any help? Sorry so long...
 
JetAudio will play Real files (despite the name, it plays
audio and video) and it doesn't take over the computer or
file associations they way all Real products do. BTW, THERE
is a place and THEIR is what they have and THEY'RE is what
they are.
