    Hi All,

    Having read all the posts regarding problems with IE (& all the suggestions to switch to FireFox) I finally took the plunge, & did so.

    Must say I'm very impressed.....but I've one problem! How do I stream video? Every time I click on a video link the download option appears, where as in IE the appropriate video player would have started up & begun to play.

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Rollo Tamasi,

    I had thought of that, but I checked Tools-->Options-->Downloads-->Plugins

    and .WMV is listed (& checked) & associated with Winamp, so I assumed that it was "plugged in".
    Also curious as to why mpeg isn't listed?

    I have both Winamp & WM 10 installed.

    Thanks again for the help
