Is there a way I can set Windows Media Player as my default music player? When I download a music file it opens in Real Player. I would like to use WMP instead. Thanks.

The Dude:

I did as you suggested and WMP is now my default player. But now I cannot listen to any of my midi files. I double-checked and I have every file type box checked, including midi. I'm wondering if there is a connection because I had no trouble listening to midi files before I tweaked with WMP. Any ideas as to how I can fix this? Thank you.
