unable to listen to streaming radio

I recently switched from Internet Explorer to Firefox and I am testing things I did previously to check compatibility.

I am trying to listen to this program http://delicast.com/radio/german/Alpenradio_Volksmusik

but Firefox tells me that I need additional add-ons. It recommends Windows Media Player 12 but this version is not designed for Windows XP, my current operating system.

I have just updated my Windows Media Center Edition, followed by an upgrade to Windows Media Player 11, but it still does not play.

Everything works fine in Internet Explorer. What do I need to do in Firefox to make this work?

There is a special plugin for Windows Media Player in Firefox which hasn't changed in several years, but since Microsoft doesn't install it by default, you may need to go get it. Then, because the installer hasn't been updated, you need to adjust a setting in Firefox so Firefox can find it. Then the site should let you play Windows media.

Does that fix it?
