Windows is not my main operating system, so hopefully my suggestions are adequate. :)
Do you have WMP or LW's Media Player set as the player for LW? This setting might be a part of the issue. This setting is at bottom of window when you first open the LW Preferences options, ie: LW's menu bar, Tools -> Options.

Also, one possible answer is, instead of using LW's preview function, you instead, right-click the downloading file & choose Locate on Disk (which will be the incomplete file in the incomple folder.) Right-click & choose play from there. This also has the effect of not creating Preview files within your incomplete folder which LW's Media player will do if you use it for previewing.

thanks Lord of the rings for the info think it should get things back to normal:aweof:
