Which player are you using? WMV files are only supported by Windows Media Player.

You should search for other formats .avi or .mpg these can be watched in all players.

I was using media player and now my computer pulls up real player. Is there any way to switch back to using media player? Sounds like that would solve my problems.

Thanks.

I tried playing some files not under limewire but under media player and found nothing works. Media player wont even pull up anymore. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Delete them and download in future only .avi and .mpg files.
