I found that on 4.5, if the thing is called a "plug in", you can't override it with a "helper" application. I get the same error on wav files embedded in web pages. I have tried using the "helper" list and also hand-editing the preferences file in .netscape, but it just ignores anything I do, so I think if it's looking for a plug-in, that's different than a helper application. regards, Jim Durham To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
