My PC crashed and when I got it going again (backed up) I can not play any of my CDs that I have burned on windows Media player myself. When I try to play them it try's to down load a license and says Error: your Netscape browser does not have "Microsoft® Windows Media Services" plug-ins installed. I have installed a media player plug in and it still will not work. I am using Fire Fox.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player

You probably need to install the DRM plugins.

Does this mean I should install NetScape Browser, Asswipe? I'd hate to give up my Firefox, Dipschitz!
