I'm guessing this is a WMA file right? I'd highly recommend staying away from WMA files on the network, the higher % of them contain viruses & worse. What you should know about WMA/WMV Files.

I'd recommend you put .WMA into your keyword filter. :) Then aim for mp3 audio files. :)

wmv/wma (DRM protected file)
 

thanks for the heads up regarding wmv/wma files, I didn't know that. Will avoid those type of files from now on. Thanks again for the reply.:idea:
