Hi guys... I'm Pablo from argentina, first: sorry... my english isn't good, so I hope you can understand to me...

I have a question; last week I bought a mp3 player... I've installed "the mp3 players tool", but my Avg antivirus says that this soft contain a virus, I wanted to uninstalled it, but I could not... I read the threads that mentioned how to uninstalled here, but I can't.

the version of the software is 3.5.02, do you know what can i do?...

And the second question is if you know another soft to convert to amv or mtv (no mp3 player tool), 'cause my avg doesn't admit that working it well...

Thanks a lot and hope you understood...

Actually there were more people reporting trojans in the software, that came with players bought off ebay. Maybe you could try another antivirus program like avira classic, also free, I prefer it over avg.
Google helps!
Have you tried starting the computer in safe mode, and remove the software then?

pablo_cba, You need to delete the installation manually as follows:

Delete the folder from the Program Files folder then open regedit and got to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall. You will find a series of subfolders with alpha numeric names like this {7784A172-61F1-445E-8368-601607E0DD22} click on each one until you find the entry related to MP3 Player Utilities 3.5.02 displayed in the right panel, then delete this folder. Then do the same here HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Installer\Pro ducts\
You should now be able to install a new version.

This method works on all versions so you should not have any problems.

I have put together a trojan free install of version 3.68 here:

I just downloaded it from the link above with no problem. If you are using a download accelerator you need to disable it to use Rapidshare.
