I'm sure Treebeard would disapprove of my hastiness in saving the Medium file before I read the last line of your post at 189.

I'n downloading the DivX now - says it will take 55 minutes or so.

Dumb question - how do I get it to play on Windows Media (it's installed on my PC but the downloaded file grabbed RealOne)?

What is your preferred sobriquet? HairOfTheDog is so longggg for a lazy typist!

You have selected, somewhere along the line for RealPlayer to be your default player for .avi files. If you hunt around you may be able to find where that setting is.

In the mean time, you can either just Open Windows Media and Select "file-open-browse" and open it that way.... or you can right click the file and choose "Open with" and brouse for WMP... That may lead you to a dialogue box that will ask if you want to change your default player.

As for lazy typers.... some have called me Hair, and some have called me HOTD. I guess I have answered to both of those! But then, I have answered to "Hey you" too!
