Ok heres a weird one. Has anybody come across this?
I have just freshly installed Windows XP with SP2 and went to install Dr Divx. After the installation it kills my right click and hangs the computer if I right click on any file within the harddrive.
Tryed uninstalling Dr Divx and deleting all references to it in "program files" and it brought back right click. Then tryed downloading another version same thing happened. I even tryed reinstalling Windows XP I think there may be a compatibility issue with SP2. Has anybody else come across this?

The ms website has a list of programs that do not work as normal with SP2. I was struck at how many of the divx codecs and players are on this list. Have a look -- also have a look at the Dr. Divx website and see if they have a fix.
