I get what you are saying; I'm about to set up a Windows 7 system, that I just got and, judging from the talk about the Windows Media Center portion of that system being a bit dicey to set up,itself, accessibility wise, am hoping that I don't run into many more hassles like I just had! However, the 2 subjects may not be germane to each other!

When I click it, I get what appears to be a blank page. I am guessing that if I wait long enough, the mp3 will load in to my player, which is Windows Media Player. Somehow, I think having several different media players messes up the IE settings on weather you get a prompt to download the file. This has been happening to me more often recently. I've had trouble listening to mp3 files linked to on web pages as well. I end up right clicking and save as. Bob To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
