Stop windows media player autoplay!

With W2k SP2 and Windows media player 7.1, there is an irritating feature I want to disable.

Whenever I highlight a media (mp3, mpeg, etc) file, WMP automatically plays it in the preview window. This is incredibly annoying! I don't have Single Click enabled. Is there any way to turn this off, or disable WMP in the preview pane? I want to keep web view on for previewing pictures.

I have the same problem w/ all 3 machines at work.
