I belive newer versions of Windows Media can only be played in Media Player 7+. Unless you get some hacked codecs to install for WMP 6.4. I am guessing these people can't play it back because they're using a older version of media player.
You could try could try using version 8 instead of 9, but that's lesser quality.
I would highly reccomend you encode your videos to a AVI, using XviD compression. "AVI" is a container, it contains video/audio streams, it has nothing to do with how big or large your file gets. That is the job of the codec. You're probably using a really crappy codec, or you're not using one at all. Also you need to use a audio codec as well. I would reccomend MP3.
Check out the guides off the main page, they're rather lengthy, but they are thorough.
