Windows Media Player cannot access the file. You might encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:
* This file is currently in use. Close the file, and then try again.
* You do not have permission to access the server or other location where the file is stored. Verify that you have the appropriate access rights, and then try again.
* You do not have permission to access the proxy server. Verify that you have the appropriate access rights, and then try again.
You may have to change the settings in your streaming protocols,
ie: the ports you are using
