Bizzy are you on dialup or cable broadband?

What is your internet speed?

The downloaded MP3 players could be a number off issues especialy if they are downloaded from shareware sites.

This codecs pack may help:K-Lite Mega Codec Pack - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com

Run this:http://www.speedtest.net/

Post results.

I wonder if it is a combination of Orange and a slower speed.
