If you'd like to see what landing in Iowa City after a December
snow
storm
is like, you can get a "back seat view" by clicking

For a low approach down Rwy 25, click

For those of you not accustomed to snow, it's kinda fun to see.
;-)

They come out as an outline with a white box (with a little red "X")
in the upper left corner.

My firewall blocking something?

In my case they come out as a grey box that says "click" in the
middle. If I click it says I need some plugin but the file doesn't
specify which one. I think they're RealPlayer, which would explain
it; I don't allow that on my system.

They are .avi files. Depending on your operating system, you may be
able to right click and then "save as" then open with your favorite
movie viewer.

I'm with you, I HATE realplayer AND quicktime for that matter, they both
try real hard to take over your system. Anyone know of a third party
player that plays MOV and RM files?

Changed the default viewer to MediaPlayer and that fixed it.

I, too, hate RealPlayer and QuickTime for the reasons you state; until
recently, RealPlayer had taken a lot of heat for it's privacy violations.
