There is no InProcServer32 in my CLSID folder or the numbered one.

Awesome, it worked great. I thought it might be a problem with the SIZE of the avi files, but it still locked up with a 37 meg avi. To the user who said ‘I have no clsid’ I didn’t find it to begin with either, but I was looking at the top of the very long list, where all the items begin with a . period. Look past those items, I found mine there.

Heaven sent. I though it was already a virus. I followed it and it works. I now deleted the avi file affected. thanks.

No Software required

Just give another avi the same exact name as you the one you want to delete then place it in the same location, click yes for replace and then delete it. Works every time.
