You only really have two options:

1) Pick a different tune to put in the background
2) Ask around to get someone to host the file for you.

You could probably find someone on CAA who'd help. I would, but I don't have a byte of webspace to my name. :smile:

or you can find a legal site with direct links for music (like the address ends with .midi or .mp3) Good for you... my xanga is http://www.xanga.com/ninjaraver

If something is precious to you...no matter how painful or how hard it seems, no matter what it may cost you, you have to hang in there and protect it with all the strength you got even at the risk of your own life. If you do that, then even if you die in the attempt, at least the world will be left with the proof that a man worth living had died!
It'd be like your legacy.

They probably have the file locked so you can't link to it.

Do you have dial-up? That could be the problem.

Sound settings? If it's a MIDI file, you might have your MIDI audio settings too low.

I had this same prob. when I got Xanga going, but I eventually found an audio file that I could hear.
