I have a dial up connection (56k). I'll try downloading the DivX player.

Do I save it to my hard drive or run it? Do I need to reboot after the install?

It's a program, just run it, it'll set you through an install wizard once it's done.

No, you don't have to reboot.

RealOne player can also handle a lot of different file types, but better be safe than sorry. I use RealOne, DivX, WMP, and Quicktime to watch all different kinds of clips...cover all the bases...lol

I am gonna guess your connection speed is still gonna be in your way. It is a 35 MB file. It may not be the codec at all.

The file won't download... You have to live stream it until we hear about another way. It plays in my Windows Media Player, I can't tell if it uses the Divx Codec or not.
