Can't Open Downloaded Files The Green Machi 11-13-2005

I've received MP3's from a friend but Microsoft automatically blocks the
program from being opened as soon as it is downloaded. I read the "how to use
blocked files" help that was provided in the dialogue box but it told me to
find the file i downloaded and to right click, blah blah. The file is
invisible. I messed with folder properties to try and view the file but i
still can't see it. It seems that only files from this friend's computer are
affected by this, and i don't think that every one of his songs or that his
computer is infected by a virus. Thanks.
