I posted this earlier, but perhaps it didn't go through.  I copied the line
from the ACB Radio web page before each link that tells you what the show
is:

Here are the direct links you can use to listen to the five streams on ACB
Radio.
I got these by going to the main page, clicking on the "listen" link and
then following each program to its listen pages and picking the streams for
Winamp or mp3.

This may save some headaches.
