Here’s my mp3 problem…
When I play an mp3 in Windows Media Player audio stops after about 10
seconds, then I get a popup telling me to download a file from
flashcodec.com. The popup says:
You have chosen to open
Windows_Media_Player_Flash_Codec_Plugin.exe
which is a: Application
from: http://www.flashcodec.com
I have run NOD32, Windows OneCare, Windows Defender, PCTools Spyware Doctor,
AdAware, BitDefender, Panda Scan and HiJackThis. None of them can find what
is causing my mp3's to cause the popup.
When I try to play the mp3's in Winamp I get the sound of a scratched CD or
they do not play at all, but no popup. On a side not I can play wav files
just fine. I have looked all over the internet for the solution or removal of
this problem but I can not find one.
The problem seems to be an embedded piece of code in all my mp3 files.
I've come to this conclusion because I just downloaded a few mp3’s from a
classical music website and the mp3’s play just fine in any media player.
This would mean that the problem is in my mp3 files. If the problem was with
the media player it would affect any mp3, old or new.
I also used Ashampoo and mp3Val to scan my mp3's and those two programs say
my mp3's are corrupted and can not be repaired.
I think at this point I have to delete all my mp3's, unless someone has
found a way to clean the infected mp3's.
