    i am getting the following error when i try to play a video from a gadget on my sidebar.
    Firewall is off
    i am using windows vista ultimate service pack 2

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported. If you typed a URL in the Open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or "rtsp:").

    Any suggestions as to how could i resolve this??
