Just for you to know. There is a mailing list for Winamp for the
blind and its at freelists.org.

I can send you the website on how to subscribe to that list. I
no longer use Winamp here. I am telling you all this because
when I had Winamp 5 I installed a tara plugin that allowed me to
play most Real Player and archives. The tara plugin is out of
date and you may want to alsk on the list at Winamp4theblind if
it still workds with Winamp.

In order for the tara plugin to work you must have Real Player 8
Basic installed on your PC.

Just for you to know in advance I am not reccomending this.
