I was recently downloading some Mp3's on Kazaa and I came across a stange problem. Some of the Mp3's I've downloaded have completed fine, but they won't play. The strange part is, the songs are all from the same CD (The new Radiohead CD that "leaked", Hail To The Theif). I've never had trouble playing any complete Mp3's before except 1 other time when I was on a downloading spree and a set of tracks, all from the same band, wouldn't play. I didn't put much thought into it at the time cuz I didn't really care about the band. I have trouble believing that these tracks are bad, unless certain bands are trying to slow down filesharers by flooding the networks with bad tracks. Also, the files are very widespread and I'd assume someone would have made a note in one of the filenames somewhere indicating the track was bad. Maybe I'm missing a piece of software or a codec or something that would allow me to play these Mp3's? Also, I've tried playing them in WMP9 and Winamp 3. They both recognise the name of the track and the proper length, but it simply tries to play for 1 second, then stops, or skips to the next track if it's in a playlist. Nothing works.
Thanks for the help.

If you can do a simple file transfer using ICQ etc, then I want a copy for examination, PM me if you will do this,
cheers
No ICQ, but I just PM'd you with some other options, thx for the help.
