Hi Jraju

I had already run different things when I saw your message.  So, I went onto AVG site to remove their software and put on Avast instead.  I was then worried that I would not know if the malware had gone, so I then did the Malwarebyte scan and installed rootkit.  I am also going to install Cleanmem as it is a quite old system.

All of this has been done without removing superantispyware....will this be a problem?  Also now that AVG has gone and trying to open it brought up the Group Policy message, because I am not trying to open it I don't know if it is solved.

Do you suggest that I still download the junkware removal tool?

Thanks a lot, I do appreciate your help.

Hi, There is no harm to uninstall super anti spy ware after all this is done. Junk removal tool definitely helps in getting rid of browser hijack programs and trojans hidden as system files.
                 Using malware antibytes and avast boot scan would be enough, if they fix your problem. Avast is the best antivirus free to use and it has so many shields and took lesser space. This is also  best in av comparison in the av comparison link.
                    Bundled programs crept in to your pc and that is why this behaviour

After doing all sorts of scans and checks, unloading and reloading spywares etc I thought I had resolved my problem with the pc.  However today I have tried to open Windows media player and it wont open.  If I right click on a video and choose open with windows media player it gives me an error message.

I have VLC so I can watch videos but cannot access my library in Windows media player.  The only message that makes any sense is Windows media player configuration settings might be set incorrectly.

How do I access it and correct it?

thanks

I dont like the normal Windows media player, it is so bloated! Also a lot of times the error has to do with a codec that it needs, which is a file that tells it how to play certain files.

I also and install this,
http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/k_lite_mega_codec_pack.html

It will install all the codecs you need to play almost everything and it also has media player classic which is a simple unbloated player, thats the one I always use. But dont worry all the codecs will work with the normal media player as well :-)

Hi

I already have Klite on my pc in order to play video files. 

The Windows media player just wont work and I am wondering if the same malware that seemed to affect my original problem is now manifesting itself this way?
