It can call up Winamp or Win Media Player, but both of them lock up with a message about "waiting for video. . ."

One has to give up and try under IE, which is a 64-bit app on this machine. It can successfully manage a handoff to an audio player.

Your above posted system details shows outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

  • Shockwave Flash 10.0 r2

Update the Flash plugin to the latest version.

You do not have the WMP plugin installed
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player#Missing_plugin

You may need to disable the VideoLAN plugin as it can cause problems.

With the update to the Flash plugin per cor-el's post, you can listen to NPR's live news stream from this link: http://www.npr.org/programs/ or, if your local station offers live audio streams, find your local station here: http://www.npr.org/stations/
