The major problem I have is with media sports video clips. I am not able to view any clips that require WMP.

When I try to view on Firefox it says I need a plug in and then it says none available when I choose the install option. I have read help sites on the problem and it seems that the only way to use WMP with Firefox is for it to be imbedded in the web page.

I am not sure about Real Player since I use Real only when forced to do so but I suspect the problem would remain.

I worked on the problem for a couple of days and finally gave up. I know it is MS fouling things up and hopefully Firefox will eventually solve the problem.
