Have you tried reinstalling it or updating to the latest version?
What files are you downloading and trying to play?

Thank you. yes I have reinstalled and I updated to the newest version of windows media player I can use I also have tried a couple of other media players. I run windows 98 so the media player I use is 7.1

I cannot play most files of any kind m-peg avi stream etc. I was able to at one time now i cannot i dont really know what happened between then and now.

Some places like Kazza only let you play their files on their players. The files may be protected. I havent really tried to get around that but, I use 360Share. It's easier, usually when it says you have performed an illegal operation it means their protect files.
