Sergio,
Hi - so sorry to hear about your frustration - we've all been down that 
road :)

Fortunately, there's a solution!

The reason why your xspf file and player are not working is due to the 
place where you are hosting the xspf - see below:

>> the xspf playlist is stored at:
>>
>> http://www.filelodge.com/files/room35/992665/playlist.xspf

FileLodge must be some type of file hosting service which is setup to 
send people to a Web page before sending you to the actual file.  When I 
click on the link above - it 'should' load the xspf to the app on my PC 
which is associated to xspf (which is yahoo's horribly large and slow 
Music Engine).  BUT - when I try to browse to the link above... 
FileLodge presents me with a page that has a LINK to the xspf.

What that means, is that the same thing is happening when the Flash xspf 
player requests the URL... it never receives the playlist.

If you want to fix your situation, you'll need a real Web host to store 
your files on. Free hosting services are always going to mess with your 
requests to insert their own ads, etc.

Take care,

Gideon Marken
