I'm finding that while FF 1.5 works pretty well overall, it's no longer handling online video (WMV & QT).

Anyone else experiencing that problem? Test it out here (funny xbox ad): http://media.putfile.com/Unseen-Xbox-360-Commercial

It seemed to be loading fine for me, but I'm on a dialup and didn't want to wait for 6 megs. Closed the window and it was still loading. Closed the other FF window still opened (to the Freep), and it was still loading. You have to completely disconnect, and then an idiot box pops up about an illegal operation. I expected the cache to be dumped, as was always typical of FF crashes, but it wasn't.

With IE, you close the window and the downloading stops. Mozilla needs to get on the stick about that common sense fact.

Apparently not :)

Sounds like something got futzed with the plugins - you may have to reinstall QT and WMP to correct it.

Someone created an extension that just fixed the problem for me.
