OK...NOW something is srewy!!!
Look here you chuckles...read through the Windoes Media Player thread...saw the cool guy link for the codec bundle.
Downloaded and installed the silly thing, now I can't get ANY vid links to play 
I can't even pull up my "add remove programs" in my control panel...what gives?
I installed everything except "BS Player"
Help?!?
Thx,
Eagle

So you installed all that BS without the BS player, is that what you're saying? No wonder it doesn't work.

If you don't already screen all downloads through a good anti-virus program you may consider doing so.

Oh sure...you REAL FUNNY there NDD...It all YOUR FAULT for starting the silly thread in the first place!!! Besides...the thread instructions say NOT to install the player, JUST the CODECS-Mongo read good cause Mongo don't know puters 
I've run my antivirus scan twice, no hits. Just re-installed Media Player 10, and am trying to check things out. MAy just go back and do a system restore.
I HATE doing that

That was going to be this knuckledragger's advice. Damn computer geeks were probably just screwing with us the whole time in that thread....

Theres actually an uninstall for all that stuff. Goto your start menu then programs theres an uninstall icon, I believe it works for only Windows 2k and XP.

If you can't even get to the uninstall via the program menu then navigate directly to the install directory - there should be an uninstall.exe located there.
Out of curiosity, are you running Adaware Profressional as one of your scanners? Some nasty errors occurring lately when you install certain programs while Adware is open. You'll know you have hit these errors if you run a file scan for *.lnk and find a ton of them where .exe's used to be.
If you are finding .exe's like control panel programs suddenly changed to .lnk, and you're too stubborn (like me) to restore or reformat then I'll post the fixes.
