Fellow Birding Listers:

If you are an AVISYS user like me and have a WINDOWS operating system (please, no gloating from you APPLE or LENUX users) and also have WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER installed on your computer, you may have a BIG Problem !

If you meet this criteria, just go down with your curser and right click on START, left click on EXPLORE and then double left click on AVI. Now look at the icons on each file. Do some of them have the WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER icon on them ? I hope they don't, but either way, I'd like to hear from you, because I'm about four weeks into a very expensive (no end in sight) and soul crushing computer disaster that seems to have lost 15 years worth of birding records (11,000+) for me and corruption of my AVISYS program by the WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER program appears to be the source of all my heartbreak.
