    It must be activated by some other service, maybe Windows Media Center, but let's try to find out...

    Please download SystemLook from one of the links below and save it to your Desktop.
    Download Mirror #1
    Download Mirror #2

    • Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
    • Vista users:: Right click on SystemLook.exe, click Run As Administrator
    • Copy the content of the following box into the main textfield:
      Code:
      :regfind
      wmpnscfg.exe
    • Click the Look button to start the scan.
    • When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.
    Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt

    I have very same three keys.
    If you're so determined to get rid of that thing...on your own risk...
    Back up registry, or create restore point.
    Then, delete WMP_OnPrivateNetworkAvailable subkey from all 3 registry locations.
    Restart computer, and good luck

    Thanx. So do you also have the program running? I take it that this is something that you wouldn't do? I can understand your disclaimer. Sometimes I have to do that.

    Is your list from Process Explorer?
    If so, I don't have wmpnscfg.exe running.

    You have home premium right? My mom has HP and she also has it. I'm going to look into seeing if other versions have it. Perhaps it is a media center thing and I do use that. I'll think about what I'm going to do and let you know if you care. Its odd that you have the registry keys but you don't have it running. Do you have the file? It is under \programs\media player.
