windows media player not responding.

[Billly]

ok...i know nobody likes it, but for some reason it isnt responding when i open a link or a file. all it does is bounce up and down on the dock and say application not responding . i tried reinstalling it, but it does the same thing. before, it would worked pefectly. i like this player because sometime vlc and mplayer cant recongize it. any suggestion?

Try trashing the preferences file for WMP also. Reinstallign doesn't get rid if that. Its in Users/User/Library/Preferences/Windows Media Player Prefs

Same here. It even plays some that Windows Media Player doesn't like

I cannot get it to play the CNN news links. Everything else works just fine.
