Using the CDex app in my non affected systen, I can see in the codecs list the "Windows MP3 codec", and other codecs, Lame MP3, Fraunhofer, etc.

But a affected user tell me that "Windows MP3 codec" don't appears on CDex list.

Perhaps Winamp, Windows Media, and others players use any available coded such Lame MP3 or Fraunhofer, and mIRC use exclusively the "Windows MP3 Codec" ? (question for Khaled).

I have looking for donwload this specific codec, but I only find third party codecs, and the Windows Media not download the codec if other MP3 codec is installed in the system, I think.

Anybody knows how reinstall the codec ? Perhaps by removing the others MP3 codecs and then using WMP to play an MP3 and forcing it to donwload the genuine codec ?
