Hi David and George. I've done what you both suggested but my music is still being played through real player. Have you got any other suggestions?

To set Windows Media Player as the default mp3 player: 1. Open Windows Explorer ( Windows key + E ) 2. Choose Folder Options from the Tools menu. 3. The Folder options dialog opens. Move to the File Types page/tab of this dialog. 4. The first control on this page is a list of registered file types. Select mp3 is this list, Tab to the change button and press it. 5. An Open with dialog opens. Tab to the list "choose the program you want to use". Select Windows Media Player in this list, Tab to the OK button and press it. 6. You are returned to the Folder Options dialog. Tab to the Close button and press it. Hope this helps, it's a pain that realplayer tries to hijack some of the settings.
