Is there any way i can copy music files from a media server?

The computer i'm streaming from is available in the same network, but i'm unable to access it as it requires a username and password.

Streaming from the media server to my pc works fine but i'm looking for a way to copy the files instead.
 
Given that I have absolutely no clue what media server type or model you're talking about I'm forced to guess:

Username: root
Password: root
 
Doesn't work.

Perhaps i should mention that im able to access this media server in Windows Media Player on the left hand side under 'Other Libraries'
 
Sorry.

All the computers in the network are running 32-bit Windows 7 Professional.

Not sure what you mean by type of server or where i would find that out.

Oh, and there are roughly 100 computers in the network.
 
I am guessing you are talking about someones computer that is running win 7 pro and is sharing its media via WMP 12 stream.
You cannot copy media directly from this, as it is a UPNP streaming server.
If you want to copy get the guy to share that folder with you or if it your own Comp create a homegroup if you aren't on domain.
