If I click a link in any browser (K-Meleon, firefox, internet explorer) that starts 
with mms://..., my browser complains that mms is not a registered protocol.
How do I (re)associate mms with windows media player (or another media player)? Looks 
like control panel/folder options/file types and the configuration screens in WiMP10 
can't do it.

Tip: Run a free scan for common Windows errors ad
