You will? Cool.

I've been using Mozilla as my web browser ever since it was indicated that Internet Explorer caused cancer and this thing just ain't makin it. It doesn't even allow me to listen to AAR.

Do you have any suggestion as to a web browser that is good at opening up streaming audio?

Thanks.

Stew

Sorry I can't help you. I'm a MS slave.

2. I have no problems with Mozilla and streaming audio....
You may need to work with your associations to tell Mozilla when it downloads files with certain extentions (like .ra or .ram or .rm for realplayer media) to open the file with realplayer.

Same with .pls files.

3. I use Firefox, or Safari (on Mac OS X)
Firefox is the leaner, faster version of Mozilla (it doesn't do mail or usenet, however). It's available on all the platforms Mozilla is.

To listen to AAR, I just pasted the URL into RealPlayer, and made a bookmark for it right inside RealPlayer.

4. Try this...
Go to Tools, Options....Click on Downloads on the left hand side.

Look in the filetype list.

If there the filetype RAM is in the list, click edit, then choose "Open them in this application" and browse to Realplayer.exe on your system.

If there is no filetype RAM, Click on the AAR link to listen live and then when it asks what to open the file with, choose Realplayer and check the box that says "always perform this action".
