Seems sort of obvious, but in case you haven't already done this, re-enable WMP and then disable the two plugins (you can't remove them, at least on WMP9). Now re-disable WMP and hope for the best. Whether you can trade one for the other I don't know, but WMP9 is less nasty than its successors, and there is a really excellent hack for ripping mp3s at 48000 Hz that I'll be glad to post a link to. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
