[QUOTE="Horness, post: 698167, member: 46714"] 1) Could this be your Energy Saver settings kicking in before your screensaver does? Check the time-outs in System Preferences, Energy Saver (under Hardware). 2) Open Finder, browse to your folder (Mac HD, Users, Your name) and look for the Downloads folder. Click+Drag it back to your Dock. 3) .sitx is a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StuffIt"]Stuffit[/URL] file (like a zip file) by [URL="http://my.smithmicro.com/mac/stuffit.html"]SmithMicro[/URL]. You have to sign up to a life of spam, sorry I mean "periodic email updates" to get the free download. I've never seen the need for Windows Media player since discovering [URL="http://www.videolan.org/"]VideoLAN[/URL], even on a Windows based computer. Is there a specific reason why you need WMP ? Hope some of that helps. Horness EDIT - looks like there is an echo in here! ;) [/QUOTE]
