Success...almost (RealPlayer)

[Kyle Penner]

So after fooling around for hours with mozplugger streaming finally
works in totem, but only with Real codecs (Win never seems to
work...).  And I can only pause the stream, not control it fully.

Does anyone know how to prevent the stream from opening a new window
in Firefox?  For example, when I listen to NPR.org, a "dmg.php" page
opens, and if I close it the stream stops.  I'd like to prevent this.
