Mp3s and Windows Media Player

[phil_er_up]

In IE, when you click on an mp3 link, it will (by default) open Windows Media Player, and it will start to play while it's downloading the rest in WMP.

But, in Mozilla, Firebird and Netscape, the browser is determined to download the whole mp3 first, storing it in some temporary directory, then launching Windows Media Player to play the file.

I want to know, is it possible for Mozilla, Firebird or Netscape to act in the same way IE handles mp3s?

I just want WMP to come up straight away after clicking an mp3 link, like how it does it with asx files, not the browser downloading the whole mp3 first, then launching WMP9.
