Hi,

It's been months I have a serious problem. Everytime I try to watch
online news or online music, my WMP keeps saying "Connecting to media"
and it lasts for ever without doing anything. I posted this problem on
too many websites but nobody has the answer yet. I can watch videos or
listen to music on different players than WMP. I updated WMP but still
nothing works.

I would grately appreciate any help from you.

Thanks a lot

.
