target as', so i click that. it starts downloading, am i loving it. then it takes bout half an hour to download, when its done i am so eager to
watch. i double click on the 'IMAROBOT_Song1UKVIDEO' icon, and i loads up windows media, i get the message 'this format not
supported'. so i go to the properties to make sure its actually a media file. it reads 'WMV' so i guess is it. so i drag it to realone,

windows xp home...hmm? 7.1 or 8?
visit http://www.windowsupdate.com that will give you the ability to update to the most current everything and you should be set.
users have issues with the download section here becuase every program, windows media player, real player, quicktime, etc. fights over the ability to
be integrated into the browser. Quicktime is the worst for PC's. Windows Media Player 9 is the best for PC's if want fast streaming video.
Unfortunately, since everthing tries to integrate into the browser it really makes downloading difficult. If you want the actually get the file on
your machine try one of these applications. It will rip the URL and allow you to download the actual file.

HI DOWNLOAD
good luck.
