Yes. You have a known problem called "Windows." This is a dangerous virus
responsible for a stunning amount of squandered time and loss of hair.
Temporary solutions while you prepare to switch to a more stable operating
system: For playing mp3s, download a free player like WinAmp
(http://www.winamp.com). When asked if you want to make this your default
player, select yes.
Should you have problems after installing WinAmp, try saving the mp3 to your
harddrive first, then playing it through WinAmp.
Oh, and I would recommend moving away from Outlook. Something like Eudora
(http://www.eudora.com) is free and you won't be using an email app that
likes to infect your system with viruses, trojans, and other nasty malware.
Plus, you can transfer your saved messages from Outlook to Eudora with no
problems.
