I would appreciate it if someone could explain what Real Player taking control of MIME means.
When new applications are installed, they often like to associate particular file extensions with their program.

This happens to me a lot when updating/installing QuickTime. I usually keep all of my JPEG and GIF's to deafult to my browser, but QuickTime will often hijack those extensions and open them up in QuickTime.

It was just a guess, but perhaps there is some animation on the page, or HTML code that Real Player has "hijacked" and tries to launch the player whenever you view a page.

I'm not sure how to tell you you to solve this if it has actaully happened, but it was just a theory on my part.
