I can play mp3s just fine, but I can't listen to any streaming audio. The player tries and gives the following in the playlist:

1. Local
2. Temporary
3. Internet
4. play[2]

...and then it just stops. Streaming works fine if I use RealPlayer, but it just doesn't seem to be working on Winamp. It's NOT that RealPlayer is "stealing" the stream. I've set Winamp as the default player for all relevant file types (and I uninstalled RealPlayer anyway).

To make sure that I wasn't having a network issue, I uninstalled winamp and reinstalled realplayer. Guess what: the streaming worked again. I really want to use winamp for my streaming audio... any suggestions?

Thanks...
