Google is your friend.

There are a number of free players available on line. A Google search will
get a bunch of listings. Here's a start:

When one goes to the page you suggest, Carey, one gets this:

"Page Not Found

Sorry, the page you are looking for is not here."

Page opens fine for me. Quote:

"FLV files in Windows Media Player

The latest versions of Windows Media Player should play Flash FLV files
without any problem, but you may need to install a media decoder first. If
your version of WMP doesn't work with FLV files, try installing ffdshow
(link supplied: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/).

When you open an FLV file the player may give you a warning message saying
that it doesn't recognize the file extension - click OK and play the file
anyway."

If you correct the URL that Carey posted, yes, it works.

Yep, I saw the bad slash, but interestingly enough I only clicked on it and
it worked regardless. IIRC, there is or was a setting someplace that
automatically corrects these in IE.

I wouldn't know as I rarely use IE, especially in Ubuntu where I use
Opera and IE, fortunately, is not available ;-)
