Re: WM not opening up

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I seem to remember the Port25 firefox plugin (which predates Firefox
3) doesn't currently work in Firefox 3.

Presumably somebody has noticed this and is working on a fix.

The real player download media plugin, and Quicktime on windows 2000
is also blocked / non-functional on Firefox 3. And the Silverlight 2
plugin seems to cause crashes as of now.

The media support seems to have been bypassed during Beta testing.

Cheers - Neil
