NPR provides solution for RealPlayer broadcasts not working on their site

Noam Birnbaum writes: "Whenever I try to listen to the NPR RealPlayer news broadcasts, I get the following error: 'Connection to server has been lost. You may be experiencing network problems.' This doesn't happen with other RealPlayer resources on the web. I'm running RealPlayer Basic 7 on a Macintosh G3 over a 56k modem." He contacted NPR about this and they replied: "In RealPlayer, go to the View menu, select Preferences, and then click on the Transport tab. Click on the 'RTSP Settings' and select the 'Use http only' radio button. Click OK and do the same for the 'PNA Settings' button." This worked.
