Macintosh systems have some unique problems using the Mac version of Explorer. Netscape should be used. You may need to go into preferences on the browser and under “Helper Applications”, check for “video/x-pn-realaudio, video/x-ms-aff, and video/x-ms-wvx”. If there settings are not there, then you will need to make a “New Type” for each setting. Below is the info for each setting.
