I klikt on web links and got dialog boxes saying

           You do not have the plug-in needed to view the
           "video/x-ms-asf" type information on this page. To
           get the plug-in now, click View Plug-in Page.
and
           You do not have the plug-in needed to view the
           "audio/x-pn-realaudio" type information on this
           page. To get the plug-in now, click View Plug-in Page.

I klikt the [View Plug-n Page] link and downloaded everything I 
thought might be relevant.
        (don't ask)

Perhaps unrelated,
but I have recently klikt on three web page links
only to have the computer lock up.

Three examples, all "Real":

1.
I klikt on a snip of music on the WUOL web site.
My computer downloaded
           bach.ram
and _immediately_ froze.

The cursor never moved again.
The Bach did not play.
Push the button; re-boot.


2.
Same thing happened on the New York Times web site.
I klikt on "video Karbala".
My computer downloaded
           npr4583.smil
and _immediately_ froze.

The cursor never moved again.
No video.
Push the button; re-boot.


3.
Same thing happened on the New York Times web site.
I klikt on "video Karbala".
My computer downloaded
           play.rbn.com
and immediately froze.

I thought the OS might time out trying and come back,
so I waited 5 minutes.

The cursor never moved again.
No video.
Push the button; re-boot.

:-(   ?
