Downloaded a basketball game but doesnt work

hi i downloaded a basketball game and its a avi. and when i open it with quicktime i see a white screen and the sound plays and i can hear the game playing but no picture. It tells me i need some software update but i dont know which one. Heres what it says when i click on show movie info
XVID, 448 x 336, Millions
MPEG Layer 3, Mono, 48.000 kHz
I dont know what i need someone help me becuase i really want to watch the game. This is kind of making me mad because on my old pc i never had problems with watching this stuff. I also tried realplayer but its weird for the mac and its blank to. Does anyone know anything else that can play it besides quicktime

The file needs a codec that is not standard part of QuickTime. You should try downloading and installing the free DIVX codec since that is commonly used for files online. You may also have luck playing the file with VLC or MPlayer.
