Just got my new harddrive and installed kazaa and all that. Now when I try to play almost every video it says this little tid bit

Windows Media Update

In order to play this file, you need to upgrade your media player to a version compatible with Windows Media Rights Manager V7. Select View Compatible Players below to see a list of compatible media players.
If your current media player does not have a Windows Media Rights Manager V7 compatible version, you should select a different player with the Windows Media Rights Manager V7 identifier.

Avoid this crap like the plague. Tell everybody else not to use it, don't make any media that uses it.
Boycot this crap and it will go away quicker.

The entertainment factor or the convienence of using this stuff to play media just isn't worth what you have to give up to use it.

or just prepare to surrender and just give up your rights and your paycheck

Whatever you want.

So what has happened in the last month? I used to be able to play all these files now it seems I cant play any wmv files. Is there anyway I can play them?
