Here is a message from my little archives about real alternative.
I can't vouch for the authenticity of the message but think we have often had 
reliable messages from this sender before so here it is.
You can get the program from 1 of 2 places.  The first place to look is
www.whitestick.co.ukk
in the downloads section because it's easier to
navigate.  But if you want to be absolutely sure you have the latest version
of the program, go here.
http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/finalbuilds.htm.

Before you install it, it's a good idea to remove Real Player, since the 2
programs do essentially the same thing and there would almost certainly be
quite a few system conflicts if they were both present on the same system.

Here's one small tip for you.  When you get to the point where you're
setting your bandwidth settings, you'll need to use your JAWS cursor or
whatever they call it in Window Eyes to check the appropriate radio button
for your net connection.  You can move between the choices with your arrows
like a normal radio button selection but for some reason it won't recognize
that the choice is checked unless you click on it with your left mouse key.

Hope this helps,

Steve
