Dick, you have a wrong setting in your computer.

Firstly, did it give you the opportunity to "open"
or "save" the download?

Try the "save" option and place it in a folder that you know where it is. (you may have done this already).

Next. go to the file, and "right click" on it, and select "open with", then "program" and select "windows media player" from the list. It may also ask you if you want to remember the selection, or something like that. Click "yes". That will mean that all .mpg files will play in Windows Media Player and work automatically.

:cry: :cry: :cry: Sorry Woodie. I tried to open it with everything I have but does not recognized to file.
I have had this happen a couple of times. Most movies I can open.

Dick,

Then something is up. I can't get it NOT to work with anything "player" I throw it at. Are you on Windows XP with SP2 applied? Did you try to "right click" on the link in the post and "open in new window"?

You mentioned you got "hundreds and hundreds of pages of jargon". Was that "jargon" displayed in? Internet Explorer? MS Word?

It seems that your computer may have lost it's "association" with .mpg files, and what to use to open them.

Can you go into "control panel" - 'folder options" - "file types" and see if MPG is listed there.

If not, add it and associate it with Windows Media Player, or set it to Windows Media Player.

See how that goes.
