Vista problem with playing .wav files from C#

Experts,

I have a simple .aspx page that takes a path to a .wav file, and
plays it. This page works fine on all OSs (Windows 2000, Windows 2003,
Windows XP), but not on Vista. Could the protected mode on vista be
interfering with this page? Any other ideas on why the code does not
work on Vista would be greatly appreciated. The (simple) code for this
page is

==========.aspx page========================================

CodeBehind="WavFileTest.aspx.cs" Inherits="MiscTests.WavFileTest" %>

This is 100% the wrong group to post to. You really need to post to one of
the dotnet or C# groups. I'll bet 99.8% of the people here wouldn't
understand the code

You can turn off Protected Mode under Internet Options.
(It will nag you until you turn it back on, but this should let you test
your theory.)
