Doesn't do anything when loading the page, but when I click the "send an
MMS" link it starts Windows Media Player with a playlist consisting of
the only track I ever played in it, very long ago. "mms" apparently is
for "Microsoft Media Server", I don't see really how I could send some
"Microsoft Media Server" to anybody by clicking some hypertext link. If
your point is that people should not make up random URI schemes without
proper registration and standardization I am sold, but you seemed to be
arguing more in the direction of ... the opposite. (Opera v11.52 on
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition with no relevant customization).
