Poiu,
A couple of questions.
Why is the "hidden" command in your script?
Since it is not happening with everyone have you checked out the possibility
they may have a problem on their end?
I would think that if everyone was getting a popup then your program was
withholding its download so their computer could not play the music. But
evidently that is not the case.
Another possibility is their music program may not be functioning or is not
able to play your "WMV" file. If it can not play the file it would probably
ask the people to"download the file".
You might try a different song in a different format (ie. MP3) to see how it
functions. I'm not versed in WMV files. You should be able to do a goggle
search and find info on conversions.
Don't know if that helps, just some observations.
Sincerely,
FM
