I know that but I found that on Google search and now I don't like them.
Those Mac people are suspicious and distrustful of us the Windows user and
we (so far just me anyway) are suspicious and distrustful of them. I mean,
those Mac people didn't wanted Activeworlds and Aladdin Systems together
just because of "Windows-only nature". That's pathetic. They didn't like
Windows and Activeworlds and I don't like them (Mac community) either.
Simple as that.

Your a very bias person ;). You should lighten up a little bit. Mac people
aren't bad at all.

[View Quote] Maybe the plugin is broken. Not everything that goes wrong while you're running Windows is automatically Microsoft's fault.

[View Quote] are you sure ? Windows Auto update installed WMP 9, since then i couldnt
play ANY DVD, the ones i bought and own and the ones from the Rental. It
kept telling me i should disengage the TVout on my video card. But since i
watch my DVD's on the TV that was not an option. Luckily there is a tool to
unistall any version of WMP and reisntall a previous one. Now i run WMP 8.1
and can watch any DVD i want.

Windows Update installed a patch which slowed down my compute rto a halt.
Took me 2 days to revert.

Do you think i disabled Windows Update?

This are just 2 examples, if you want i can go on...

Some are a bit shaky though. Switching between slow-mo and fast-forward
playback, etc. Might be a codec thing. Doesn't happen in WMP 6 (probably
the best WMP version to now).

Other WMV files have worked on it though. It's like it's encoded to only
work properly on Windows Media Player... I mean I would expect it from
Microsoft, what with the latest version of Media Player being made to only
work on XP.

Maybe WMVs have changed since the plugin was made (it's for Winamp, not
Winamp3... yes, they're actually two different programs O_O)

I use the Winamp3 native WMV support. I believe it just calls WMP
components.
