CODEC question

I have Vista Home Premium. I use the Media player for several internet radio stations and it does well. i would like to utilize Live365.com and some of the stations that it has. However, when I try to play those stations, I receive error messages that state that the file extension (.pls) is not recognized. When I try to continue, it states that the CODEC "that was used to create the file might not be supported" by Windows Media Player. I am not a techie, but would like to get this resolved. Any suggestions would be most helpful and appreciated. TIA.

Try with Winamp. Windows Media Plaxer does not recognize automaticaly the PLS format of playlists.

That was easy. I Downloaded Winamp and am back listening to Live365.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Merry Christmas and I hope your new year is a happy one.
