.pls/shoutcast association problem

Well I installed SP1 and checked out the Set Program and Access Defaults utility. It looks nice, but there's really nothing there to help me. I am flabbergasted. This is driving me insane because I used to connect to Shoutcast with 9.x and much older versions of winamp. I have to believe it's something with my own system though. The file association seems to be correct though. I've installed Winamp 2.8 and now when I click on a "Tune In" button from the web page it appears in the playlist as "shoutcast-playlist[1]" and just sits there. It does not play and when I hit play it looks as if it attempts to connect but then does not with no error messages or anything to indicate why. However, now, if I drag the "Tune In" button to the playlist, it then resolves to several entries, any of which I can manually begin playing by double clicking or hitting play. Can this make any sense whatsoever? It almost looks like it's not a file association and perhaps something else.

Well thank you for your help none the less.

Thanks
