Im not able to watch anything that runs on windows media player on the firefox browser...

I have WMP11 installed and running fine on my computer, so is there a setting or something I have to change?

I may be wrong, but I believe there's a plugin for playing media files in Firefox. I think WMP won't run in Mozilla because WMP uses ActiveX.

whenever i try to play a video that runs through wmp, it says install the plugin, so i click install, but it forces me to manually install it... so it takes me to micrsoft's website and it tells me to install wmp11, so i'm back to where i started... Undecided
