I went through a startup application list for her and removed about a paragraphs worth of items.

Hmm if some file cant be deleted in windows then delete it in Dos, or Linux ! use a bootable cd with ntfs (if ur partition is ntfs) and then try to clean it..

The only way i choose to clean out virii is thru Linux or Dos.. If it still cant be cleaned then u gotta format before tha **** thing spreads

Hope it helps,
Bye,

original problem solved:

Hey i had this same problem, not necessarily with windows media player. However, I know that Apropos is not a virus, it's adware that dispays popups on your computer. it is very annoying. you can find how to remove it manually on a step by step instruction here: http://www.kephyr.com/spywarescanner/libra...pos/index.phtml

you may find it necessary to uninstall it manually, because my spyware program said it would delete it on reboot, but it was still there when i performed a new sweep.

If problems persist with your windows media player, then apropos is not related to it, and you may have other devices or viruses on your computer.
