I have a different problem with mlb.com. It's not  finding the games. I 
can find them but when I click on the game the player just sits there 
and won't connect. I've tried it by logging in the conventional way and 
by logging in through the player and most of the time the player just 
tries to connect. Got any ideas as to what I need to do? Thanks.
