No download option box for mp3s?

Hi, I've been having this problem for a while but can't fix it... whenever I click on a link to an MP3 file in IE5, Windows Media Player opens in the window but the file doesn't download. There's an error "Invalid Syntax" with details "Invalid syntax (Error=800401E4)". Before I formatted, the Open or Save As.. window would come up as usual. How can I make it return to that?

I uploaded a screenshot of what happens when I left click a mp3 file at http://wind.prohosting.com/w3x/mp3error.gif . I realize that I can right-click and choose Save As.., but sometimes I don't want to save the file, I just want to open it.

Thanks
