Step 1: Get Subtitle Display Tool
Download VobSub. Install.
Step 2: Get Subtitle File
If your download did not come with subtitles (and most do) there are plenty of sites that allow you to download the subtitles for free. Check www.divxsubtitles.net for starters, download it and put it in the same directory as the movie. Since the subtitles probably did come with your download and are just sitting in a zipped folder or are already in the same folder as your movie you can skip this step. Just look for the file ending in .sub
Step 3: Turning on the Subtitles
It works like this, the subtitle file must be named exactly the same as the video file with the exception of the .sub extension.
So if your movie is named: StarWarsIV.DIVX.avi
then your subtitle file should be named: StarWarsIV.DIVX.avi.sub
If you don't see the file extensions (.sub or .avi) you can turn those on in Windows by opening the folder then clicking Tools > Folder Options > View (Tab) and unchecking the box entitled "Hide Extensions for Known File Types".

Here are a few of my favorite foreign films.

just had the same problem with my mac and the same movie. I found a solution though. Download the program submerge, it combines the avi file and srt file. It worked.
or simply use VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/)
