I have a file thats supposedly for Windows Media Player, its an AVI, but it wont play, it says I'm missing a codec or something. What codec do I need?

most of the codecs they make you pay for if you click the "web help" link they give you.
i just picked one they provided, downloaded the trial version, and then got a serial crack. but if you dont want to steal/crack the trial versions, then try this
