Hi, When I click a link to (.asx) file, Firefox opens it automatically with Winamp, but I don't want that, I want to open it with Windows Media Player, or Firefox should ask me to choose an application. How can I change this setting? Thanks.

Look for that action in Tools > Options > Applications and set it to "Always Ask".

I went to that option, I typed "asx" in the search box but not result. I browsed the whole menu but didn't find anything about asx (Windows Media Player Playlist). How can I add asx as a new file type to the list?
