Looks like an error in the spelling of the file extension either in the link or in the file itself.

When I mouse over the link it displays: http://www.passion-for-truth.com/enemy.m3u

What is an m3u file??

you must have hit it while I was trying something else - when I googled
there was a page saying that I needed to make a txt file and then rename the
txt file with the full url address in it where the mp3 file was located -
then upload to root directory, change the txt to m3u and supposedly it would
play immediately - didn't...so I just switched it back over to link to the
audio page with the player - can you check again please?

thanks
Pam

mmm Ok .. it works for me - but it may be pulling from my cache - correct?
as I can't get it to play on my other computer - could you check this link
again and let me know if you're able to listen to the clip?

http://www.passion-for-truth.com/articles.htm then scroll down to click on
The Plan of the Enemy - also please let me know how long it takes to load
for you

thanks
Pam
