Has anyone ever heard of pcouffin device?

I recently generated a system health report with my vista 64 bit system. In this report it told me that there was a problem with my pcouffin device. It said that it was disabled. It tells me go into device manager and either update the drivers or uninstall the device, if I am no longer using it. I looked in the device manager and was anable to locate this device. Did some fishing around and other people are saying that pcouffin has something to do with DVD burning software. I uninstalled all DVD burning sofware on my computer but I still have this problem. If anyone has had this problem and knows of a fix I would be appreciative.

Did you ever use DVD43, AnyDVD or 1-Click DVD Copy or similar software?
It's connected with that. Uninstall that software and reinstall.

Re: Has anyone ever heard of pcouffin device?

This is the software that I had on my computer. Any DVD, Nero Lite, Ashampoo Burning Suite and Ultra ISO.I had used all of these at one time or another. I have uninstalled all of the and I still get the error. It might be a virus because I am now getting alot of memory problems that I never had before. I am using the free version of Avast. Avast told me that I had a rooot kit the other night. I don`t know what it did with it. The problem with Vista 46 bit is it`s too new. All the new software has too many bugs. I have reinstalled Vista too many times. I guess I just want Vista 46 bit to grow up already but I understand that it will take some time. Just downloaded comodo firewall. Had it before. This time they say that they have worked out all the bugs via a Patch.
