The plugin is trying to deal with .wvx files, which I suspect are
Microsoft Windows Media files. Depending on your distro, browser and so
on, you may be able to install a plugin - vlc, mplayer and totem all
have firefox plugins, for example. You will also need w32codecs installed.

Not sure... decent JavaScript support? so, Firefox, rather than Konqueror
