Dear all,
I downloaded this freetool to try it out. But immediately I couldn't startup my ms-programs (Word - Excell etc) anymore. Instead a popup came: Context Manager Platinum, which blocked and only had one option: going to there website to register and buy.
I googled a lot. First I didn't know what caused it. Found posts and article-blogs that this (your) player is carrier of a little infectious software what causes the problem.
Now I already managed to free my pc from it with the free took Glary Utilities, but to be sure, because I really found a lot of complaints, I erased the Player.

So watch out!!

ps. I had downloaded the player from your "official" site.
