Topic: .SHN downloading

[dmbfan755]

Recently I've been downloading .shn files from a website. I want to put the files on CD. I'm trying to use MKWact to convert the files. I believe i have all the necessary components. i know the files work since i've listened to them usin SHNamp on WINamp. But every time i try to do it a message comes up that says "Error reported by Shorten: No Magic Number" what is a magic number? how do I get one? i used this exact software with my old computer, using the same website and everything, except it doesn't work ths time. I'm running on a windows XP, as was my old computer. Actually, it was the same computer, but we had to reload windows due to extensive problems with the drives. If anyone could help that would be great. Thanks.
