    Whenever I open a vido file I get the following error:
    "windows media player windows cannot find c:\progra~1\dvdregionfree.exe..."

    I've removed DVDRegion free from the computer and checked to make sure Windows Media Player is the default program for video files but I keep getting this error before media player starts up, any idea how to get rid of it?

    Is there anything for DVDRegionFree listed in Library/Plug-Ins if you open WMP ? It's just a thought - not an area I'm well up on :)

    I'm not really sure what you're saying, I clicked on Library and didn't see anything like that.
