I think on the Real.com Support page there is a FAQ that says
how do I configure my browser for Real Player 7. It states
there the various extensions one has to add under
Preferences/Applications..
And one question from me... Is the new player able to play its
content in the browser window ?
Because the older versions couldn't :-(
