I am having trouble allowing designated staff access to Windows Media
content. I have the firewall client loaded on the computers, and IE is set
to use the web proxy service. I am unable to play either web-embedded
content, or content through Windows Media Player. In both cases, it goes
about the process of trying to connect, and then the status shows "close"
and nothing else happens. I get no error messages at all. The WMP software
has a checkbox telling it to use the same proxy information as the web
browser, but it also didn't work with "no proxy" set there.
I have a rule that allows members of a particular group to access the
protocol (which is defined by default as "MMS-Windows Media"). I have
looked at the log, but it seems to indicate that there is no denial. An
excerpt is below (beware the line breaks):

All the "cs-status"'s are either 0 or 20000, which a Technet article
indicates is a successful connection termination.
I have looked and made sure that "Enable filtering of IP fragments" is
turned off, as this was the only other information I could find. Any help
is greatly appreciated!
