If your computer has a virus, I don't think it'd distort the mp3's without making them compleetly uninteligible. Anyways, get a virus scanner. Macafee and Symantec are the two main competitors, I'd say. You'll have to pay money or have questionable morals to get ahold of either of them. Matthew

You didn't say whether this was on the car player or on the PC. If it's on the car player, what is the version of the software running on the car player? There was a known bug in version 2.0 Beta 3 (and possibly 2.0 Beta 7 though I'm not sure) which did this. _________________________ Tony Fabris
