Why i can not listen to live streaming radio when using Firefox as my browser but i can listen when using IE?

I’m using Mozilla Firefox3 as my default browser. But when i want to listen online via live streaming, i have to use IE7. I am using a Japanese XP Home OS so i use Mozilla because it’s in English. Need help for this!

Mozilla Firefox 3.x doesn’t come along with the plugin for WMP (Windows Media Player) which is used by default in Mozilla Firefox to control streaming radio.

You can download the Mozilla Firefox 3.0 WMP Plugin here:
