There are several protocols that may apply to your problem. Specifically, Windows Media uses MMS. Protocol def is as follows:
 
port 1755 TCP Inbound
(secondary) port 1755 UDP Receive
 
port 1755 TCP outbound
(secondary) port 1755 UDP Send
 
Don't forget to check your Windows Media proxy settings against this. If you're using ISA Server 2000 as your firewall, let me know - as it will go beyond simple port definitions.
