I've successfully downloaded various movies with Kazaa. However, when I try playing them with MS Windows Media Player I only get the audio - no video. I have no idea how to solve the problem. Can someone help me?

Well check to see if you have the proper codecs installed.

Gspot Codec Search

Dear Dela

Thanks for getting me started. In the meantime I went through several other chat forms looking for a similar posting.

I found several people posting this problem but most went unanswered.

I did however, find somebody who solved the problem by simply installing Media Player 9 and DIVX Pro 5.0.3. I did it and it now my movies work!

Well obviously your movies were divx5 then because that would install the divx 5 codec!
