Trouble with windows media player

Is anyone else having intermittent problems with Windows Media Player 9 for
MAC Osx?  I have all the proper updates.  I subscribe to a music service
called streamwaves and it requires that the windows media player open to
play the selected album.  Sometimes it works fine - other times it tells me
"can't open file; verify name and path are current."  I can't figure out if
this is a compatibility problem with Microsoft Windows Media Player or if
there is something else going on.  Thanks, SW

I've read several other posts likes your. I suspect it could be an issue
with the fact WMP9 doesn't support DRM 7, but I'm not sure. Would you
have any link I could try ??

I went back to other newsgroups and people with a similar problem
managed to get this to work simply by deleting the WMP preferneces and
restarting the app. Does it work for you ??
