The problem is probably the wma's. See: What you should know about WMA Files. I would stick to mp3 files. I filter out wma's from my search results. You can do that in the limewire options.

I wouldn't trust any file that tried to connect to the internet so it could be played. I caught a bug that way once and had quite a time getting rid of it, though that was with a video file.


For info on codecs see: CODECs list and alternate players for Movies. I hear that K-Litecode Codec Pack is supposed to be a good one for WMP.


WMP and Musicmatch are very similar. You might want to try a different player. I've been using Winamp for audio files. There are some others listed in the link above . See How to set default media player.
I don't think WMP can unzip files, besides audio files aren't usually zipped. Most zip files on LW contain viruses. I would be very cautious about opening them. See: WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

Hope this helps .
