I had this problem, and corrected it by going to
Edit/Preferences/Browser/Helper Applications, and making sure the
Content Type/wmv was set to Use Windows Media Player. A great
satisfaction when it began working.

Thanks, Mr. Flyguy--

I had the same problem, and after trying your advice, it works for me, 
as well.

1. Make sure that the XP File Associations are set to play the various
video file formats when properly selected.

2. Strongly consider one of the best OpenSource media players in
existence, VLC Media Player (http://www.videolan.org). VLC works and has
worked superbly with XP, Vista, Win 7 in the various Windows 32bit and
64bit versions.

In many ways, web browsers love VLC Media Player. Likewise, in many
ways it solves playing problems for web browsers, and of course for
full-time use as your Windows media player in general.

I've installed VLC player including the Mozilla plug-in and still have 
the same problem.
When I double click or right click 'open' on an attached wmv. file, an 
empty browser window opens and nothing happens other that 'done' appears 
on the bottom left hand corner.
I set the file association for these files by right click open always 
use this program to open..

Cheers,
