When opening Windows Media Player I get a message that
says: "The audio codec indentified by the format tag 130
is required to play this file. To determine if this codec
is available to download from the web, click web help.

I was unable to find any help from MS Knowledge Base...
can anyone lend a hand?

Click to expand...

Do like this

1) Open Internet Explorer, choose "tools" and "Internet options."

2) Select the "security" tab choose "custom."

3) On the "security settings" window the 4th option down "Downloa
unsigned ActiveX controls." Change this to "Prompt."

4) Click "ok" on "security settings" and "ok" on "Internet options.
Close all browsers and then attempt to view the recording, you shoul
receive a "security warning" and be prompted to install the codec
select "yes" to allow the unsigned codec to be installed

I have the same problem as Lance. I tried drnibbles's solution, but it
didn't work. Any other suggestions?
