Firefox finally gets the Windows Media Player plugin
Port 25 of Technet finally gave it out. Its 302 KB and will help you play those odd bad-sites that use Windows Media content. Its only for Windows though.
Download WMP Plugin for Firefox
(Alternatively, Firefox will now automatically install it in case you ever encounter this necessity to play on any page.)
Installation Instructions
1. Installation of the Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin may require administrative access to your PC. It is recommended that you close all other open browser windows before continuing with the installation.
2. Click the Install button to automatically download and install the Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin.
3. Depending on your security settings, you may see a Security Warning dialog box. Click Install to install the plugin.
More (Issues, etc) @ Port 25.
Doesn’t lit up interest at all.

I know, I close WM content pages and look for other resources. But still, this one comes after a long time now, might help spread more Firefox on Windows.

Nice find, buddy! I always wanted this plugin. I know that this plugin is not one of those “most essential” ones, but then there are some websites out there which still serve content (audio/video) through WM streaming.
And by the way, I’ve fixed the Gravatar issue on my blog.
