It's been confirmed that this is not problem in IE. Sorry I didn't mention
that. Microsoft uses Silverlight:

application/x-ms-application, application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument,
application/xaml+xml, application/x-ms-xbap, application/x-shockwave-flash,
application/x-silverlight, */*

It could either be because of what Sean said with the Range request or the
Partial GET Request in Firefox. But I think you are probably correct Rolphin,
as I've had a lot of Windows Media Player crashes recently. Either way, Windows
Media Player should probably not be incorporated into Firefox if it's going to
crash. A more stable platform should be used (such as Silverlight)
