Msn + Windows Firewall

I dont know how, but nomatter how hard I try, windows firewall always blocks my recevied files (msn) if I use winamp as a default music player. (even if I shut down the firewall)

Do any of you have a sollution? Because I prefer winamp above WMP Thx

I cannot believe, that your issue is related to Winamp.

MSN has the permission to access the web in the firewall, right?

It is related to winamp 100%, because any other player doesnt has the same mistake, and most of my friends have the same problem with winamp, we all cant fix it >.<

Winamp doesn't make MSN or your firewall though, nor does it handle the file transfer. If MSN is handing the file to Winamp properly, it will work, if not then you have an MSN issue there.
