Sami,
I looked in the cache ( I use Netscape) and there were no files that were
sizable with the .ra* or .mp3 extensions. I also tried Internet Explorer but no
luck.
The browser opens up another browser panel and triggers the realaudio plug-in
when the sound file is clicked on the website. From, the second site, I have
been able to download the .ra files using Xfileget. Now these will have to be
converted to .wav somehow.
Regards,
Dharam
