Re:Opening email attachments - 2009/03/05 21:01 Download and install Flip4Mac and it will enable those windows media player files to run on your QuickTime.

Re:Opening email attachments - 2009/03/06 00:20 I've been using Netscape Browser and emailer for a long time but apparently need to switch to Safari or Firefox.

Re:Opening email attachments - 2009/03/06 15:51 Safari does not include an email reader. Mail.app does that. But without Flip4Mac you will not be able to open .wmv files regardless of what application you use. The reason? MS stopped developing WMP for the Mac, and newer wmv files will not open on older versions of WMP.
