Everytime I try to open WMP it doesn't respond. I don't know why, I got MPlayerX but it doesnt have a plugin for the browser so I can't watch clips on ESPN.com for example. Anyone else has had this problem with WMD?

Are you aware that the WMP browser plug-in only works in Internet Explorer?
Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Note to Micro$oft, this "application" needs some serious codec updates...only been a few years now since it's release.

Thanks.

Well is not only the plugins. The application itself doesn't want to open. I have IE and doesn't work either.

Well if the reports from early summer are true, WiMP 9 will be out for OS X 'this fall'.

Naw, I think it is limited to Bush and Blair
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.
