Hurray, it works now! Your comments got me thinking so I went to the two web sites and viewed their source code. Turns out the site which works calls for a specific application type: working: video/x-ms-wmv non-working: application/x-mplayer2 Looked in the registry and found the non-working application type did not have a CLSID key. Found the CLSID to use, adjusted the registry (added the key) and bingo, it works now. How wonderful! Thanks for your help :-)

That non working application type "application/x-mplayer2" should have been pointing to CLSID "CD3AFA8F-B84F-48F0-9393-7EDC34128127" "VIDEO__X_MS_ASF Moniker Class" InprocServer32 = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\wmp.dll" Glad you got it sorted out.
