This worked for me so you can try it.
First of all go to control panel and bring up add and remove programs. Then remove the real player completely from your system.
After doing this run a search on your system for the file named realaudio.exe and delete all files that the search finds.
Then go to start--run. You then should get a box with nothing in it. Type in the word msconfig and click on ok.
Now in the box that appears click on the word startup at the top right of the box.
Now look for a box checked name realaudio.exe and click on the check to remove it.
Then look for 2 files that have no names beside them as shown in the attached photo and remove the checks by them.
Now click on apply and then ok.
When prompted restart your computer.
If after restarting your computer you get no virus warning then it has been disabled.
You may get a window telling you about changing your sytem configuration settings. If you get this just click ok and when the system configuration box appears just click on the x in the top right corner to close it.
If everything here works for you, you can then reload the real player at this link:

Good luck I hope this works for you too.
