Oy. And Happy Thanksgiving. :-)

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone on my friends list and beyond!

I thought I was getting better, but I seem to have backtracked a bit on the road to wellness. But I'm otherwise healthy, and I'm loved, so thanks for that. :-)

The universe doesn't hate me quite as much today. Still haven't seen the video, though not for lack of trying. Downloading was like sledding through frozen molasses last night, so I finally gave up. Went more quickly this morning (like sledding through *thawed* molasses), so yay! I now have the RealPlayer version and the ripped mpeg. The mpeg one won't play, so I'm now downloading the RealOne player, which was also downloading at the speed of negative none last night. It's zipping right along now, and I should have it downloaded in about twenty minutes.

JC Chasez, the crap I endure for you. grrrrrrrrr...

hey, i've been trying to download it too and from your comments it seems :: cries :: i have the same problem. No AOL, Dial-Up and no Real Player. if you could show me what you did to find and download it that'd be awesome.

Thanks in advance
ooh! the download that you lost at 49% what program did you need to play it? i'm downloading it now and i have a feeling i don't have what it needs.

Howdy! Always nice to see a new face. :-)

I was just coming in to update - I ended up downloading RealOne because even the mpeg version wouldn't play for me. I figured I'd rather download a new player than just the plug-in because it seems that with RealPlayer, there's always one more thing you need to download.

RealOne downloaded in about ten-fifteen minutes which was waaay better than last night's attempt. Set-up after that took another five minutes or so. After that, I clicked on the clip and it opened right up.

I've got to say that as much as I hated all the versions of RealPlayer that I've downloaded, I think I'm going to *love* RealOne. It's about 8Mgs, so if you've got the space, I recommend it. It plays just about all file types, according to the doc. And Some Girls was *way* worth the trouble. :-)

Good luck! Let me know if you get it to work.

Thanks for that! i'm up to 79% of my download. so i'll see what happens, i have a feeling it won't work so i'll do what you suggested and download RealOne...

thanks again..aarrghh i hope it works

Good luck! And honestly, coming from someone who has wished nothing but death to RealPlayer over the years, I think you'll be happy with the RealOne download. I forgot to mention, if you already have RealPlayer installed, it uninstalls that before installing RealOne. I liked that because I hate cluttering up my drive with things I'm only going to use once every blue moon!

yarr, it didn't work. But! i am downloading realOne. yay! i hope. so when this downloads will i be able to play the 'rm' file i just downloaded? hmm..confusing. I need an mpeg. Like NOW!

where did you download the 'some girls' video you are playing in realOne? aww i ::sniff:: i need to see this! erotic! jc!.

ooh 50%
thanks again.

To tell you the truth, I tried so many different places that I'm not sure I remember where I ended up downloading it. But I have both versions, the .rm one from the AOL stream, and the mpeg that someone ripped. Neither one would play until I downloaded RealOne, so I think you'll be safe there.

I know that someone will make a windowsmedia version available soon, but I couldn't wait that long. :-)
