    Lately I've installed the new WMP11 onto my laptop, but a lot of songs don't play as they require a licence. When I choose a song that needs the licence, it goes automatically to the page, but when I press 'Download licence' an aerror screen appears saying 'Error: your Netscape browser does not have "Microsoft® Windows Media Services" plug-ins installed.'

    I've tried looking around for a relevent plug-in so this would work, but to no avail so far. IS there anyone that might be able to help sort out this problem for me? Cheers for any help, have gotten me through a few problems before.

    Is that by any chance music that you purchased through iTunes?
    Sounds like a DRM issue.

    No, I don't use/have iTunes. Also, its a Firefox plugin I need, but have actually just found one, and downloaded it, yet it still isn't working. Does that help any further at all? Its downloaded to my desktop, so might need a different location.
