hey folks ~ every time i click on an MP3, i get this ugly gray paneled
brower window with dinky little controls. it has the "real player" emblem
on it. seems like RP RiPPed off my file associations again.

how does one get a good-looking mp3 player to play audio on the net? how
does one restore this file association? I looked under "programs" in the
tools / options, but no-go.

thanks for basic help.

Hi Hello,

Windows Version?

If you have Windows Media Player (WMP) with your OS version, then there are
options under the Options menu to reset your file associations.

Other media plugins also have options in their settings to reset the file
associations.

Regards.

WMP's Tools:Options:File Types would be a quick first step to update the
file associations.
