I work with an mcse instructor at my job and I seem to recall a conversation we had regarding windows media player and windows movie maker, and basically a lot of other programs that come with the o.s. that microsoft wont allow you to uninstall from the add or remove programs section. The answer to that question relies in the registry. If you do enough research and searching youll find information on the right registration keys to delete or remove in order to replace or remove any of the components in any windows o.s. that they dont want you to remove. In regard to windows media player "9" the best way to get rid of that is to do a system restore on the account that upon installation it automatically creates a system restore point in case you want to convert back to your original version of windows media. However, besides .wma files there are a ton of other media players that squash windows media player on any given day. I recommend you start exploring other options besides windows media player.
