Help with Firefox

[Raheny Red]

I recently downloaded Morzilla Firefox explorer as the Internet Explorer was fcúked. Anyway, I can't download files with Morzilla Firefox as the Windows Media Player still thinks that the Internet Explorer is the main browser.

Any ideas how I can download files on Firefox with Windows Media Player??

Cheers!!

do you have firefox set as your default browser?

[Raheny Red]

Yes.

here is the url I'm trying to download from;

then when it tries to open it in the windows media player the following appears;

Windows Media Player cannot play the file. One or more codecs required to play the file could not be found.

well thats not a browser problem then you need to download a codec there should be instructions on how to do so when you hover over it

I think you need an audio codec, usually AC3 Filter. Thats as far as my knowlege goes on it!

Can be found at http://www.free-codecs.com/

download k-lite codec pack from here (http://www.free-codecs.com/K_Lite_Codec_Pack_download.htm)


get the full version if you have broadband- never have codec problems again if you do

Definitely not a Firefox problem. Firefox is the business by the way - way better than Internet Explorer

i have both and i dont really find any much difference except maybe firefox slightly quicker if you tweak the about:config settings
