Hi all,

I really need some help here if anyone has the knowledge please advise me as to how to get mp3 links to open in media player. I had to reformat my computer over the past few days and upon doing this I installed my media player and all this other stuff. I went to one of my favorite websited to get a sneak peek at what new music was out and what was about to come out and I got this message from internet explorer asking me if I wanted media player to handle all audio links on the page, well I accidentally clicked no, and now I can't get the files to play period !!! I can get the files to play in winamp by entering the url of the file and it'll open it right up and play it perfectly, but I really would like for media player to handle this by default so I don't have to take these extra steps in winamp. I appoligize in advance for anyone who deems this as a stupid question, but I tried all I could think of and my results are nil.

Thanks,

Jason

You do not say what computer op. sys. you have , but if you have XP, Go to "start > Set program access and defaults" and try these settings.
