how do I play protected files?

[erato007]

Hi, I had Winamp, but couldn't play a file that presumaby was "protected". Then a sign showed up, saying that I needed an update, which never downloadsa, so I could never play the file. I read all the options: nothing. So I uninstalled the one I had, because I read in a forum that the 5.66666 or something could play these files. Same result: "In order to play this file, a security update is needed. Proceed?" Yes, please!! But no =(

When I click on the update or plug-ins buttons, I have this result: "We'll be back soon".

Do I need a DRM? What can I do to play this kind of files? I'm in a online library, and all the files are the same...

HELP!!

Btw, I've been a most faithfull user for 20 years. Best player ever!!!

Thanks,

S.
