I presume you've downloaded all the files to a folder on your hard drive?

Open the m3u file in notepad, remove the url and leave on the mp3 file name in there only. Save the m3u file with the original file name.

Alternatively, you can use the program Chris linked to, http://www.soft29.com/mp3_m3u_converter.html, to just create your own m3u files from the mp3 files you've downloaded.
