Media Player Will Not Play Streaming Audio

I'm running Vista Home Premium with all the latest updates installed.

When I go to my favorite on-line radio station an click "listen", the Media
Player window opens, the black bar flashes "Opening Media...", then instantly
goes to "Ready". No sound plays at all.

I've checked and rechecked my security settings and my firewall and at this
point my bet is on Media Player.

Thanks for your help.

Can you let us know which radio station(s) names you've tried ?
Some other people reported an issue last week like this...
