Re: Windows Media Player BLINDSIDE update!

It was not my "imagination"! They said (again) it was a "version 10" update!
Is this fact getting lost somewhere here?

So, if I understand correctly *you* accepted an update to *your* computer
that *you* did not get "ANY option to read anything about" and now you're
mad because it wasn't what *you* imagined it might be? I can understand
your
consternation, obviously this is someone else's fault.

In any event restoring from your most recent disk image or backup should
put
the situation right.
