Angry Firefox Plugin Problem

Hello to all,
Today at my grandma's house I installed firefox 2.0 for them to use. I have one problem though. With firefox I can't get it to install the windows media player plug in. The first time I tried it FF to me to download windows media player 11 and do a manual install. So I downloaded media player 11 and firefox still tells me to download media player 11 and do a manual install. So, do you guys know how I could get the windows media player plug in installed for firefox?

Back up a minute.
You updated your grandmother's machine to WMP 11, installed and everything from the Microsoft site, and the media player is running OK for her ?

edit : I can't really tell what you've done other then download WMP 11.
Here are full instructions from Mozilla/Firefox for using the plugin : http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=206213
