Cannot Play .ASX files in WMP11 after installing Nero Essentials 7

I am having truble playing audio/video streams from websites using WMP.

I have WMP11 and am using Windows XP Home. On oe th sites in question is:

http://play.rbn.com/play.asx?url=wcpe/wcpeint/wmdemand/preroll.asf&proto=mms?url=wcpe/wcpeint/wmlive/wcpewin.asf?mswmext=.asx

When I click on the link I get the message "Intenet Explorer cannot open teh
webpage"

Up to a few days ago, the links on the website(s) worked fine. I install a
new DVD burner drive and the accompanying software, NERO 7 Essentials. Now
site the use .asx files will not play.

I don't know it there is a connection between NERO and WMP

I have a a laptop without NERO on it and the links work flawlessly. So
thatis why I suspect NERO.

Has anyone one else experienced this?

Go to WMP's Tools:Options:File Types and reassociate ASF/ASX to WMP. Does
it work then?
