Correction (I got an extra space in the command to unregister a
visualization). To UNregister, type:

regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Windows Media
Player\Visualizations\nullvis.dll"

where nullvis.dll is the name of of the visualization's dll you are
unregistering.

These steps, noted in my previous post, are only nececessary if you no
longer have the installer for the visualization, which would normally do the
registering for you, or if you wish to get rid of a visualization in Windows
Media Player, and there's no option to do so.
