My machine froze up, and I quickly turned it off and used GoBack to revert my drive just in case there was something malicious embedded in the file.

I'm not the best with computers. Did anyone else have this problem, or could it just be a coincidence on my machine?
actually its probably a codec issue on your machine. each type of video you view uses what is called a codec to help decode the video. it probably make like a screeching noise and all you saw in the windows media player box was the wavy lines going around. do a search for nemo codec pack and download and install. also make sure you have a divx codec installed.
