Hello,

abc.com has full episodes of tv series "Lost¨, which I very much would like to watch on my computer. But the problem is that this abc.com site seems to have a special plugin/player which works only on windows, so I can't watch it with my favorite Ubuntu machine.

Here is what it says:

"Oops...
Our new video player is only available for:
Windows 2000/XP/Vista - Internet Explorer, Firefox
Mac - Firefox, Safari"

Does anyone have an idea how to make it accessible on Ubuntu/ or how to download it in Windows to copy it on my machine?

Thanks in advance

You have to trick the system into thinking that you have Windows. Follow the directions on this post.

I used it with no problem, but I should caution you that lately I've been having graphics problems. Not too many people are complaining about this, so it might just be me.

Good luck!
