Default Is Pro worth it?

When I am able to finally download, say a movie, I most often get a error in windows explorer or media player saying that it has encountered an error and has to shut down. The file won't play so then the download is no good. Is there a codec that I am missing or are the files corrupted?

Either is possible.....
Though with the WMP it's quite likely that it is a codecs issue.
You could try to use a different media player such as the free VLC player with built-in codecs which can play almost all media files without problems. You can download it from here:

As a side note, to preview files with it you'll have to open the files directly from the Incomplete folder and not via the LW preview function.
