if your downloading from file sharing sites don't bother with playing them through windows media player. It's too fussy about what it likes.
Get VLC media player - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ - It's free and works a treat and will play any video file in any format.

Another option is get hold of the K-Lite codec pack and use another media player. Plenty more other than WMP available.
