Ive looked everywhere on the net and cant find an answer. Running the the latest media player on vista x64. It keeps auto starting itself randomly during operation. when i close it, it automatically starts itself in a second. even after rebooting. ive got all my up dates on vista. no viruses or malware, no media player in start up. major issue is that i cant type anything with media player poppign up and pulling me out of the screen im working in. (took atleast 10 mins to type this) HELP!

Hello cmos,
Try this: Go to your Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. In the list on the left side, find the name of the service you want to change (Windows Media Player); go over to the Startup Type column and change it from automatic to manual
