It is an excellent codec pack and installs nicely however with Norton 2007 and newer it will detect a Adware.CPush trojan. After reading about this adware it is installed as a browser object that can cause ads to popup from a specified web address. I do not recommend using this codec because of this. If someone manages to clean the codec pack and make it adware free I would be all for that!

99% there. I downloaded this because none of my Windows DVD players were working on some DVDs(Windows meda player Inter actual or Cyberlink) I had downloaded in Klite and Div x and a few other bits of software and this pack seemed to fix Cyberlink Power DVD completely and some DVDs work in some of the other packages but in the other packages some DVDs still have audio that sounds like you are listening to it through a fan. It also does nasty things to my dial up internet connection.
Good codec pack i am using it for sometime combined with "quick time alternative+real alternative" makes a super combo a light and least bugged i say

THis is the BEST around and the most under-rated. There is no Virus on this!!! I have scaned it with ZA anti virus and Kasp. I do not know why so many people use the xp codec pack--this is MUCH MUCH better. IF you want to just use windows media player 7 XX This is what you want.....

I got virus alert while installing the new version! I've used the earlier version before, but of all sudden, after I d/l newest anti virus definition (28/2/2007), I got virus alert when opening the storm codec media classic player! I uninstall them, and download the newest version, and I got another alert while installing "stormupd.dll" files.

It was a false positive. The Chinese version of the pack contains adware toolbar and exe while the English doesnt it. That is Why KAS detected it as trojan.
The new version of Storm Codec no longer has any adware.

d**n thats a shame. wot a great codec pack otherwise. gonna have to try xpcodecpack now.
Although this is a great codec pack and includes just about everything you need to play any file, it appears to contain a trojan. Kaspersky detected this trojan and neutralized the threat. I can recommed scanning it with anti-virus before installing this pack.
