Playing wma internet radio stations from musicmatch?

I've been able to connect to other non-musicmatch radio stations with
Jukebox 9, but not to WBUR which is a window media based station (it also
supports quicktime and real). I can get to it from winamp with
mms://wmbcast.wbur-na-central.speedera.net/wmbcast.wbur-na-central/wmbcast_w
bur-na-central_mar302003_2100_33655/.wma, however there doesn't seem to be
anyway to get to it via musicmatch. I've checked the file associations and
wma is aimed at jukebox 9.0, but when I open it in IE 6, it always goes
directly to the windows media player, jukebox never sees it.

I went into WMP and explicitly disabled wma files and then IE said it didn't
know how to open the stream at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ralph

Check the helper application list in IE. The browser has a list
of file extenstions and the application to use for them. You may
need a plugin also.
