when i click on the link, it takes me to the page and where the movie should be there is a square box with a symbol in the top left of it that has a red square above a green circle above a blue triangle. it is a small symbol. heres what i mean. http://viewer.ign.com/media_page.jsp?width=512&height=384&media=http://cubemovies.ign.com/media/previews/video/starfoxadventures/dinoplanshootd.mov&media_src=embed&media_type=P&object_id=16140&adtag=network%3Dign%26site%3Dcube%26adchannel%3Dcube%26pagetype%3Darticle&ign_section=33&media_name=Taking+out+a+dinosaur

Okay... Well.. I'm running 5.5 on W2K, and I can see the clip just fine. IE 6 may have the file type MOV associated with WMP. I would go in and manually change the file type, make it point to QuickTime.

How exactly do I do that?

u go to file association types in the preferences and go to mime settings. i checked em all and it still does not work. i'm gonna go back to 5.5 if i cant get it to work.
