Some sites require Windows Media Player.  It will not hurt your Mac. 
Download Windows Media Player for Mac. It may ask if you want it to be 
the default player, but you don't have to chose yes.  You can also 
download a free RealPlayer for Mac which are required on some other 
sites.  It will also ask if you want it to be your default player. 
Hopefully you already have a Quicktime Player installed. I would prefer 
Quicktime, but too many sites are Windoze and use the others.  I hope 
this answers your questions.  Birgit
