I'm afraid nothing helps!  I did find that under "view and edit actions" 
I can enter wmv in the search window and then double-click on the the 
large text window below it a second menu comes up where I enter my 
preferences and click on "OK" but that causes no action, nothing happens 
that I can see.  The Cancel button works but the OK button has no effect.

There's a Mozilla page I can try but historically that's been a waste of 
time ...

I'll let this slide 'til F-11 comes along and I'll start over.  I know 
not to tell it to always do it that way.

Thanks.
