Why not just set your security settings so that the scripts contained in WMV
files aren't run?


I do have them that way. Scripts are off, java is off, animation is off,
popups are off. But if I download a .wmf file and run it from a player that
has nothing to do with the internet, it still tries to log me on and take me
somewhere, if that's what the script says to do, and I have no clue as to how
to tell these players not to even try. (they never get anywhere because
whenever I need to see a .wmf file I pull the plug on the internet)

If you have a clue, please tell me how to run a wmf file in media player, movie
player, quicktime, imaging, or vueprint pro without triggering the scripts
hidden inside.

Have you tried the settings in Tools | Options | Security?

Uncheck the "Run script commands when present" and
Check "Do not run script commands...inside a web page."

I don't have a page to test these with, but I believe that's what these
options are intended to deal with.

BTW, that's in Windows Media Player (I'm using v9).

My version of Windows Media Player does not have those options (v.7)

Then install a version that does.
