No need for that, Jim; CBS don't appear to hide their media files very 
deeply ;) Just take the full url -
 
http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/videoplayer/newVid/video_display_new.html?clip=/media/2003/08/01/video566359.rm

and shorten it to 

http://www.cbsnews.com/media/2003/08/01/video566359.rm 

It's a 300Kbps stream - 9724322 bytes in size. I've got a copy for 
download from my webserver if the CBS link doesn't work for people. Let 
me know privately if anyone wants the link to it.

Regards, Martin
