Have your friend zip the files and send them to you. When you get the files,
unzip them and listen to the music.

A friend of mind keeps trying to send me files over MSN, they're both mp3's
and stupid windows keeps blocking them. I'm trying to find out how to
access
them and it's proving difficult. If anyone could help me that would be
fantastic

get your fiend to rename your MP3 files to filename.MP3.old - when sent
windows SP2, which is what is blocking them, will not recognise them as
dangerous and will then allow you to rename them to thier original
filename.MP3 which should then work ok. I do this for EXE BAT ZIP and any
other that suffer the same fate.
