When I use FF now for clips that use WMP, ones that open a special window,
for example the ones from mlb.com on the index, it uses the old WMP
interface. This image shows what I mean,

should be the bottom. IE still uses the current, proper WMP. TIA.

You have to put firefox on wmp's shiminclusionlist:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\ ShimInclusionList\firefox.exe

btw, it's a key, not a value.

Thanks! That key was already there. However I upgraded to WMP10, and that
solved it. I had 9 prior. I found a a guy who had the same problem, and
there was a thread about it, at sillydog.org, it wasn't fixed for him until
he finally (reluctantly) upgraded to WMP10 as well. I found the thread
thanks to the registry location you gave.
