No it's not a new form of the pimp smilie, it's the protected pipeline DRM crap in WMP, any suggestions in getting round it as it's really causing me problems.

Also switching away from WMP isn't a helpful suggestion

What about switching away from Vista?

Why is it bothering you? Have you downloaded DRMed music?

If you don't actually have any DRM music:

if you want to get rid of mfpmp.exe go to //windows/system32 and find 'mfpmp' edit rights to full acces and then rename the file to mfpmp.exe.bak
then you won't get errors and your computer won't use much of your CPU. good luck!!

You also can't play any non-mp3-non-drm'd music if you do that.

And Mirage it bothers me because it runs even if I'm not playing DRM'd music, hell I don't even have any DRM music...

Even though you said not to, I'm going to go ahead and recommend another player

:

foobar2000, a free no-nonsense player, super easy on CPU and memory. It's extensible using an SDK so there are lots of plugins and themes. The SDK language is very easy to learn if you want to create your own theme or modify existing themes. Attached is my current setup.

This is why I've petitioned to have you banned.
