    It is really annoying. It always try to search whatever I plugged in and occupy 99% of OS load. Even I plug in a Flash drive, it try to scan almost all files even they are not playable. The >98% happened when some Realmedia files does existing and QP doesn't know how to handle it.

    Dose anyone know how to bug this out without uninstall QPlayer?

    You can disable it from running at startup by unchecking the entry in msconfig

    Start->Run->msconfig->Startup Tab->Uncheck the entry for QPservice.exe(or similar) and reboot.

    Hey do you see those volume slid bar appear on your screen? If so, how to do that? I don't see it at all, but it happen in DV2000/6000.
