When I try to open a video from a webserver I only can save it to disk.
I don't have this problem with MP3, MPC, etc...

Sorry, this problem also accurse with MP3, MPC, etc... from a webserver.
Streaming audio from shoutcast is working correct.

I use Windows 2000 (SP3 + updates).

Is this a windows related problem?
How can I fix it?

Thanks,

Does this file work for you?
What OS and what SP are you using?

After updating to Internet Explorer 5.5 the problems are gone.

I think that one of the securety updates for Internet Explorer 5.01 is the problem.
