It keeps telling me that I need a Real-Player plugin, but I have downloaded and reset Real Player a bunch of times too, and frankly, I don't know what to do anymore! Please help!

I, too, have noticed the the audio stream is far more fragile. It often stops if my browser is accessing the internet, or if switching to or from Dashboard. It's far less rock solid as it was when Tiger was the OS.
