I have a site on angelfire and have uploaded a *.wmv file to my account. How can I link to it on my webpage so that folks can watch the video? Any help is appreciated!

Or you can just link to the file.

<a href="mymovie.wmv">Download Here</a>

This will have them "download" it (at least to their temp file) instead of embedding it.

To actually stream the file (rather than downloading it as described by troatie), you will need a Windows Media Server installed on the server. Some Windows hosts provide this, but most charge a premium (sometimes extravagant) for it.
