    Default Windows Media Plug IN

    On my new laptop which has Vista, I'm unable to watch videos or listen to the radio on the net because I'm told that I don't have the right plug in content. Does anybody know what this might be?

    What browser are you using?
    For me it works only in IE, my guess is that some path has changed so other browsers don't find the plugin anymore, might be able to fix it by copying files manually or waiting for a new browser version. If you have the problem in IE, I don't know.

    Firefox has recently fixed itself for me in that regard, and I'm not quite sure why.

    Sure you're running the latest version?

    I'm having the same problem in Opera.
    Guess they need to update it to get it working, though there was some guide somewhere(Opera help or so) about how to copy the relevant files manually.
