They possibly actually wanted to make the files automatically be added to the Windows Media Player library.
If so...
For Windows XP:
1. Go to the WMP tools menu, then select Options.
2. Go to the Library tab (at the top of the window).
3. Click on the Monitor Folders button.
4. Click on the Advanced button at the bottom.
5. Click on the Add button.
6. Locate the folder your downloads are saved in and click ok.

That should do it. If you have Vista, I'd need to use another computer, so I hope you have XP for now. ;)
