I get alot of messages along the lines "The page "video_whatever"
has content of MIME type "video/x-ms-asf-plugin", but you don't
have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be
available on this page:..."

[These come from CNN and various viral videos etc.]

The links provided never works (presumably they are for Microsoft
operating systems). Will these problems be resolved when (if) we get
Windows Media Player 10 for OSX. If so, any ideas when that might be?

Other than that - any one got any ideas for work-arounds in the mean
time?

Thanks, Clarke.

No one knows.

Nevertheless, you could make sure your system has the proper MIME type
registered (try through the prefs in IE: it writes to the Internet
Config database for all browsers to use).
