    Anyone know what "WMC_0" is?

    Spybot SD resident is asking about this registry change when I startup. I don't recognize it, and there's very little online (nothing on this forum) about it.

    That's all I can see... Don't know what I did to 'delete' a registry file. I did install Media Player 11. Maybe that altered the registry? My scans show no malware.

    Thanks

    Yes it is related to media center, but you can stop it from running by using HJT to remove the lines.

    OR:

    You may wish to use one of these: Startup Manager

    Startup_CPL
