Thanks for the tip. I use IE out of pure laziness and because it's built into Windows XP. I haven't been able to play AVI media directly offline since they pulled the media player plugin from internet explorer. Quicktime tried taking over the AVI formats but would never play them so I removed it hoping that media player would load but it doesn't. IE tries opening any AVI's now as a webpage in the browser itself unless there's some way to right click and "Save Target As" which there isn't with 'Rosity's download and view buttons. I wish I knew a fix to have Media player load up again
