gr8, my friend wants to send me a song. is that so bad?
so i got rid of msn file extention blocker. and now windows is intefering with it as well. LEAVE ME ALONE i cry. i got the song on my pc and then windows blocked access to it when it was actually ON my computer. i got her to send me another another, but still the same occured! surely this is out of line. Thsi happens when i click the "open" button in msn. if i don't click it and just open the file it's fine.
I mean fair enough, people won't take responsability for what they open on msn. surely mp3s don't need blocking? it's as ludacris as my parents saying that u can get viruses from pictures e-mails without attatchments. Surely Microsoft have slightly more up-to-date knowlege than that?

A-patch and the patch posted by Matty, both seem to work fine for me. What did you use PenguinBoy, to get rid of the file extension blocker?

PenguinBoy, take a look at your security settings, the Windows XP Service Pack 2 dialog should give you an option to open the file.
This dialog says MSN Messenger in the title, but appears even if I open the file from My Computer:
