Boo - Link doesn't work with Firefox... :(
Posted by: J-Dog | May 19, 2008 9:23 AM
There's an addon for firefox called IE tab or something, it emulates internet explorer. try that. I never would've been able to watch netflix movies online without it.

My computer, running XP and explorer says that it is missing some software to play this video, but can't find it on the Quicktime server.

hahaha that was awesome.

Worked fine for me on Firefox except that my ancient creaky Mac G4-400 won't play embedded movies smoothly. Off to find a place to DL it - if I play it in its Get Info window, it will work great. Don't even have to launch QuickTime.

=LOL= This movie is TEH GRET!!!11!!
@ J-Dog: Go to the Firefox add-ons page and get "Video Download Helper." It DL'd the movie from here in nothing flat. Works on just about all the major video sites and grabs most embedded videos like this one directly.
