So I was trying to surf some pr0n last night and most of the sites required me to have windows media player plug-in, which Camino didn't have.

Not just for pr0n, but for other sites that require this plug-in, how do I go about fixing this?

Not being able to stream that uses WM plug-in would totally blow. Thanks for any help

Errm. Download WMP for Mac or Flip4Mac.

I did dl WMP, but it's still not working, I'll try the latter.

Flip4Mac not compatible w/ IntelMacs....wtf lol..boooo

You have an Intel Mac then I take it. Flip4Mac wont work as yet then. An update is coming. WMP plugin will work if you run your browser under Rosetta. Get Info on the app icon and check the tick box.

I've been using Camino for a bit while now and started to find out more and more sites that have videos aren't being supported by Camino in native mode. I haven't tried your method of using it under Rosetta yet, but will I see performance issues on a regular basis if I keep in in Rosetta mode?

it will start much slower than if it were native, but once it starts, the lag should be minimal

Other options include running Windows in Parallels Desktop or Windows IE6 directly via Wine.
