web multimedia procols.

[Robin Laing <Robin Laing drdc-rddc gc ca>]

Hello,

Today I tried to access an online tutorial for a product that we are 
using.  I found that I could not access the multimedia files or 
download them as expected.

In Mozilla I kept getting and error about an unrecognized protocol.

The link was similar to this.

  mss://www.someserver.com/multimedia/thisfile.wmv

The protocol error was related to the mss://

I have searched for any information on this protocol with no success 
and I need to find out if this is one of those strange MS only things. 
 I think it has to do with streaming the video or data but not sure.
