Leave Audio file in this matter. Any file which is identified as a recognizzed file in windows can be played by the system.

To see what all files are associated to the respective players / software / executables, Open Windows Explorer (not IE), Hit Tools -> Folder Options, click the View Tab.

Solution to your problem:

1. When you click on the download link, open the link in a new Browser window.

2. Have the links extension as a programs file name like .wav, .mpeg, etc. This will force the client browser window to open in the respective software.

Hope this helps. Do post your findings.

Thanks and regards,
