I have got the stock "Windows Media Player" that comes with Winders XP (home). I reied looking a Doug's Sol 101 Movie and I don't think that this player supports the .mov file type. How do I view this file type? I am loathe to go to the Microsoft Media Player site for an update, usually I end up with a multi-megabyte download that doesn't do what I want.

And here I am a computer geek...

I go with the Quicktime Alternative guys. Also when you're at it get rid of the Realplayer crap and install Real Alternative.
