windows media player 9 for MAC OS X PROBLEMS!

I have just installed windows media player 9 for MAC OS X (from this site http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/mac/mp9/default.aspx), in an attempt to view a windows media file sent to me via email.

Since the install, I can no longer view any media on the BBC website (not sure what application they use on this).

I have dragged all Windows Media Player 9 related files to the trash, emptied the trash and then done a restart of my computer. still no joy.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.7)

WMP for Mac is outdated and no longer developed by Microsoft. Use the free Flip4Mac WM Quicktime plugin available at flip4mac.com Also, please note this forum is for troubleshooting Apple Software Update for Windows, a software package for Windows designed to update Apple products that run on Windows, and not related to WMP. If you have further questions regarding WMP please post them on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products: http://www.officeformac.com/productforums Questions regarding Flip4Mac should be posted on their forums: http://forum.flip4mac.com/forum/
