    I've seen this Radio program that installs in a small toolbar.I have used Screamer, ViddiRadio Player, VTuner,Radio Station, but I like it because it is small and to add radio stations from all over the world is very easy tu do. It works for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.

    To add station: click on the radio-->add station-->Define your own-->add url,name and type:windows media or real player.
    (to obtain the url, when you are listening a station, you right click on the reproductor and select proprieties and then ubication, that's the url stream to add on "add url").

    I don't know if it is safe for firefox(activeX), I use this radio in IE, (the onlything I use it for, for every thing else I use FF and Opera).I have seen there are many radios of this kind for jazz, and others.Well, I like it and works fine, because when I wanted to listen any station in other radios there were problems sometime but not with this one.

    FF doesn't support ActiveX natively. They have to be talking about the Windows Media Plugins for FF. I wouldn't trust installing anything labeled as an ActiveX control into FF.

    Thanks. :)


    To be honest I haven't had much time to check this out further.
    But I will ASAP!
    You are right GideonD. ActiveX in FF is not what we need, nor to be trusted.

    I'll read Allll about this Extension and what exactly it needs and why, etc etc.., once my mind 'settles down' ! :D

    It would be a shame if it was an untrusty extension. It's something neat to stay
    'connected' to my home country. :doubt:
