    Try QuickTime. I believe that will open them up.

    I'd stick with Quicktime. RealPlayer is bloatware, that's why it's been replaced on my desktop and Treo by better apps.

    Not to hop on the Real Player bashing bandwagon, but my issue with Real Player are the constant updates. It seems everytime I install it and go to play a file, it works fine. However, the next time I come across a Real Player file, the file doesn't support my version. When I come across a site using Real Player, I usually just choose Windows Media. Being a Mac guy, WM has always been pretty terrible on the Mac. There is a company called Flip 4 Mac that came out with a plug-in that changes all of this. It's a simple plug-in that allows Windows Media files to be played through QuickTime.

    Sorry for the rant about Real Player...

    Realplayer has a documented history of shady practices. I stay clear of real player. There are programs that have plugins to play real files.
