For about a week I haven't been able to play movies (flash? mpg?)
received via email from my friends. WMP opens and gives me error
COOD1199 - Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might
not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to
compress the file.
The file extension shown is .eml and most of them come from people who
use AOL and they are all forwarded one or more times if that makes any
difference. According to what I've read about
this error I don't have some codec needed to view them. If that is true
what is the codec and how do I get it? This is something I've never had
a problem with until a week ago.
Windows XP SP2 Media Center Edition
Windows Media Player 10.00.00.4036
IE6 and OE6
I did save the messages before I tried to open
them so I could scan with AVG but they just show up as Internet Mail
Message. I did find one of them "The Christmas Bird" at this site:

I just can't figure out why I am suddenly having this problem. These
messages are sent to me from close friends and family and they have been
sending them to me for some time without a problem. Why now?
I have seen similar questions asked on other newsgroups & message boards,
but nobody seems to have an answer.
Can anybody help?
Thanks,
Janice
