when i tried to play a song my friend sent me i got this message:

A license is required to play this file

The file you are trying to play was ripped (copied) from an audio CD.
During the ripping process, the file was "protected." This limits the number of computers on which the file can be played.
To play the file on this computer, you must download a license (a process known as "license migration"). A license acts an electronic key that allows you to "unlock" a protected file and play it.
To download a license for this file, click Download License.


then when i clicked it i got:
your Netscape browser does not have "Microsoft® Windows Media Services" plug-ins installed.

Please, if anyone knows how do i get it?

The song has DRM on it. Since it is probably hard to tell where it is from, just try and source the song from somewhere else - or get your friend to burn it to a CD so you can rip it (removes DRM)
