OK. The WMV did the same thing as the first WMV - that is, nothing. 
The AVI took a looooooong time to download and WinAmp gave me a 
corrupted picture. So, I re-downloaded it and saved it to disk. WinAmp 
gave a less corrupted view ... but, still corrupted. Media Player 
Classic (a fits-all that plays real media, windows media, avi, mov, 
etc.) played me an 11 second clip out of 37 megabytes. DivX played me 
11 seconds of audio with no pix.

If 11 seconds was all there was - OK. But, I just have to say the 37 
megs is a lot of effort for little result.  Bv)=

After I come home from work I'll make the supreme sacrifice and dig 
out my Internet Exploder to see if I can get a better result there. 
I'll let you know how that turns out.
