something has reset my browser to Real Player and I can't play any mp3s. All I get is a half-loaded Real Player page. Where do I get rid of it?

RealPlayer does that. Actually, after I rebuilt my laptop for the Nth time now, RealPlayer is one of the things that I now refuse to install. It likes to totally take over and it it does NOT play nice with others.

But... if you open Windows Explorer (not IE... the Windows Explorer) and then go to "Tools / Folder options" then click on the "file types" tab... you'll see the place where you can set the program to use to open certain file types.

Okay, I could download it to my desktop and play it. But even after going thru those steps and removing Real Player, can't click on the link.

Now I just get a blank page with a RedX.

Can't I resest IE to play it?
