    Hi Everyone,

    I have a XP Pro SP2 and I want to disable the Windows Media Player Plugin in Internet Explorer, instead I want the IE give me the option to either Open or Save the WMA file? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I tried to change the Set Program Access and Defaults but it didn't do anything. Thanks!

    You can just click the right button on your mouse and choose save as...
    instead off the left button...

    Well Obviously..... ;) But if you put the an address which points to a WMA file on the Address section of IE and you hit Enter, it will automatically brings up Media Player, so you don't have a chace to right click on it....... (BTW, right click is locked here)
