Windows XP SP3 SeaMonkey 2.11 Winamp 5.6.3 When I have Winamp installed in [C:\Program Files\Winamp\], I have no trouble launching it and playing a streaming broadcast from a link on a Web page.
When I have Winamp installed in its own [C:\Winamp\], I get an error popup for .m3u and .pl links; but it still works okay for .pls links. For the link <http://kuscstream.org/mp3/kusc128.m3u>, the error popup says: "C:\DOCUME~\User\LOCALS~1\Temp\kusc128.m3u could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." I do not see any reference to .mu3 or .pl files in Helper Applications. Windows file associations -- including m3u and pl -- all correctly point to [C:\Winamp\winamp.exe]. All Windows registry values also point to the correct path to winamp.exe. How can I fix this? For a test, go to <http://www.rossde.com/music.html>. Near the bottom of the page, the red speaker icons are links to streaming broadcasts. KUSC and KING use .m3u; WQED uses .pl. To repeat, testing for this problem requires that Winamp be installed in a path that is NOT [C:\Program Files\Winamp\]. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
