Cannot launch
 

After downloading a movie in Real player format. I double click on the saved file and the REal player comes up, but with a time of 0:00 of 0:00 and just sits there? This is after a sometimes 35 minute download, so It has to be downloading something. What am I doing wrong?

Any help would be appreciated...

is the file only compatable with real player?
try another player to see if it works. right click the file, then click Open with, then click Windows Media Player.
