I´m so sorry friend of mine, but what you comment is helpful for people like
me, when I saw the same message, I looked for "windows media player
extension" the first thing I saw, was your message, so, I didn´t chose
"install active X".
I´m trying to take care of my computer now, in this way:
Fisrt, i buy genuine software,
second, when I want to install some trial version program, I go to "Contact
Us" option first, and later copy the phone numbers, phisycal address, and
check the existence using Google Earth, later Partners, and check every
partner company, and if some of them are truthful so, I proceed......BUT, we
don´t expect that kind of troubles happen when you have Microsoft
Software.!!!, I´m going to try using my test computer.!!!
Thank you friend. (Sorry about my english, my own language is spanish)
