Yeah, *some* but not all is the interesting option, I'm afraid. Why is it
that Vista makes this so hard? It would not have been a hassle in WinXP,
where you can just assign filetypes manually to programs of your choice.
Anyway, Iguess I'll just switch everything to the 64 bit player for now. How
do I do that? I take it, this has been deteiled somewhere on your webpage,
right? I'l look it up right away...
Thanks.
