I have Win MediaPlayer set for MP3's and WinAmp set for OGG's.
I click on play and whichever file it is just opens in my default player 

Hope that helps.

Rui,

Here is everything you need to know about playing back and encoding Ogg Vorbis in Windows:
http://www.vorbis.com/setup_windows/

And here is the .exe file you download to set up Windows for all the open-source audio codecs:

...the one you want is - "opencodecs_0.84.17315.exe"

Rui,

Alternatively,you can use an audio editing program called Audacity to listen to OGG files.The nice thing about this method,is that not only is Audacity a free download,you also don't have to worry about yet another media player that's fighting to be your default player.

You can get the free download from www.cnet.com and I believe that www.m-audio.com also has the download.

If you want to be sure that you download the last official version of audacity, you better take it from the official site : http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
