DVD Codec Pack

Over the holidays, a friend asked me to setup a laptop he just got. It must have had a fresh install of XP on there along with built in wireless, a DVD player and more than 100 gigs. Not too bad. Didnt really check the memory, wasn't too concerned with the extras. However, he did have an issue: not being able to watch DVDs because the codec needed to be installed. This is a serious problem when you aren't too computer saavy. Usually you would have to go and buy one online which is completely unnecessary.

Here is a free codec I found downloadble online and will work with most DVD playback software that you install on your PC. Sorry, I don't use my MAC that much yet.

I just don't want you to have to pay for one of these.
