Default MSN Messenger blocking .mp3 file downloads

A friend has tried to send me demo songs in mp3 format via messenger. The
program allows me to down load the file, but when the download is complete
and I click the link to the file (in MSN), MSN then tels me that it has
permanently plocked the content.

Can someone tell me how to get round this, as it is becoming very
fruistrating!!!

Thanks

JD
