But I will look forward to listening in, Alan!
No its not a bug the glodrcast907 page is using an activeX media player 7 plugin and FireFox does not support ActiveX naitivly a very simple ajustment to the code ie TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" will use a dll mediaplayer 6.4 plugin thats works fine in IE and FireFox,

Alan maybe you can pass this on to the web master, so many people are using firefox now, it will be worth it....

example below

HTML Code:
<OBJECT>                            
<PARAM NAME='FileName' VALUE='mms://wmsglobecast.ld.mediawave.co.uk/globecast'>
<PARAM NAME='autostart' VALUE='1'>
<PARAM NAME='showcontrols' VALUE='1'>
<param name='AnimationatStart' value='True'>
<param name='TransparentatStart' value='True'>
<EMBED TYPE='application/x-mplayer2' SRC='mms://wmsglobecast.ld.mediawave.co.uk/globecast' AUTOSTART='0' SHOWCONTROLS='1'>
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
