you may have to turn off auto insert if you can not turn off wmp go to
microsoft and type in under search

how to enable or disable auto insert

when you turn this off
when you put in a cd only the program that you tell to run the cd will run the cd
but its up to you on which way to go
try george way first
no luck search for this on how to tun it off
but be very care full on how you do this
be very carefull

Thansk you for the suggestions, but none of this worked! WMP is persistant in wanting to Rip any disc that is inserted, no mater what type of files I tell it to look for. This is a scarey thing! I'm just about ready to back up all the files that are good, and reformat the computer and start from scratch unless someone has something else to consider.

Do you have Roxio Easy CD Creator 5 installed? If so, there's a program in there called TAKE TWO that caused so many problems that Roxio has taken it out of their package.

Their upgrades do not include it. Don't know specifically what the problems were, but it may be another possibility if you have Roxio.

You might try deleting WMP. If WMP is not there, it can not automatically try to rip a CD. Create a restore point before you do it if you are using Windows XP. This should work. If it does, reinstall WMP. If if does not work, you can restore via the restore point you created and your computer will be as it was before you deleted. If you are not using Windows XP, reinstall WMP Version 10 which is available from Microsoft. I use a different program for my player, so I tell WMP not to be the default player for anything except WMA files including video. This way it does not try to autorun.

Hope this helps

Deleting WMP worked. I was already using WMP10. I'm kinda torn about restoring things the way they were though. My cumputer isn't allowing me to reinstall WMP10 again for some reason. At least Hoster works now!

[mikedomi]

if that is the case it sounds like some thing is corrupt
in the operating system
if you want things back all the way you may have to reinstall windows again
with a fresh install

but thats up to you
