The MPlayer plugin loads the streams on the cbsnews.com front page just
fine. What browser are you using? I know that the plugin works fine with
Mozilla and Firefox but it doesn't work in Opera (unfortunately). Type
"about:plugins" in the location bar and check for the "Windows Media
Player Plugin" entry. If you can't find it in the list then the browser
can't find the plugin, reinstalling may help.
