Tried it again, and same problem. This time I disabled Norton Firewall, still have Norton Antivirus running. I'm using XP Pro with SP 2. After downloading the file, double-clicked the file, M$ player came up and that was the end of my os. I had to reboot again.
I tried it again this morning with IE7 -- same results. had to reboot my computer again.
Judging from a previous thread that you had issues with some other movie file, I think it is a problem with media player or the codecs. Try VLC Media player portable, it comes with a lot of builtin codecs, and since it is portable you can use it without installing.
