I'm not going to worry about this, I've gone this long without listening to the radio online, I can awhile longer.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The radio station feed is working for me, too. I looked at the FAQ, and if you've tried everything there, I'm at a loss.

Is the player that shows up in the popup WMP? If it's something else (like RealPlayer) then that might be the reason. If it is WMP, try going to the Tools/Options menu, and click on the Network tab. Make sure all the streaming protocols are checked.

Now that I'm paying attention, I don't think the player in pop up is WMP. The pop up window has a turner which I'm going to describe badly --on the left there's a gray circle and on the right is a smaller one and in between there are 3 buttons over the two volume buttons.

So, we need to somehow get WMP to be the default stream player, something I don't know how to do off hand.

Anyone? Bueller?

I think I might have figured it out! I went into WMP and checked "all file types" which wasn't selected before and when I tried it again this time the player in the pop up looks like WMP.

Except it's still "connecting to media", so maybe this won't work.

Well, that didn't work. It looks right but it still won't play.

Oh well. Right now I'm following the game via the nhl's play by play and the sunsports lightning forum.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I cant get to my AOL mail, because it isn't available by my version of Explorer. So I tried to download Firefox, but it doesn't open.

I'm fucked, right?

askye, do you have a firewall or anything else that might be blocking that type of live streaming transmission?

Opera isn't working on my Mac.
