Post a link to an MP 9 file (actually, I'm assuming there's no such thing per se; perhaps it's just a different codec) and I'll try it and let you know. -- Dave

I don't know if it's a different file type or not, just that websites are demanding that MP 9 (or 10 now) be used. So it definitely could be something else. Anyway, try rockstar.msn.com - sit through the silly intro, then when the page loads click "Watch Webisode". Previously I got a window saying I had to upgrade to MP 9. Now I seem to just get a window saying "Loading..." but nothing ever loads. This happens with both IE and Firefox. Dee
