Since yesterday when ever I click on any icon for Windows Media Player nothing happens, there is no icons for WMP anymore. I don't know what has happened, I only used it the other day.

Help appreciated

Do you mean there's no entry for it any more on the Start Menu?

Or do you mean when you double click a file to play it in Media Player nothing happens?

It's not clear either way from your message..

I've been to run and typed wmplayer.exe but it led to nothing, I searched for it and the result I clicked on done nothing.

This is what the shortcut looks like on the menu with no proper icon, I have tried Open with and WMP but that made no difference.

This is the shortcut on the desktop

Hope thats clear enough

Well you've obviously been infected with some kind of virus/spyware or it has become corrupted for some reason.

Have you tried reinstalling WMP?
