MC version 2002 sp2. And ouch you got me there. I forgot about 2 weeks ago I added some features when I got a japanese keyboard for this comp., and hooked it up. It worked good for the most part with LimeWire, no problems other than the ones I generated. But I was consistently having problems with M$ products and displaying proper characters. I d/led numerous items from the M$ website to correct this. I don't recall everything right now, but I'm wondering now if I didn't install some special codecs at the same time.

I got audio and video on the program I d/led yesterday. I only received one msg. when I tried to play it. "This file has been encryted would you like to decrypt ". Yes No Cancel

I will see if I still have the e-mail from M$ tech support about this. It had the links to the items I d/led. I'll pm it to you when I find it.
