I installed SP2 , and unchecked the DVD as a file type to
play with WMP.
Nevertheless , whenever I insert a DVD movie , there is a
prompt to install InterActual Player ( I usually had a prompt to play
with Power DVD 5 , whitch is my regular player .)
Already confirmed in files types that power DVD is linked
to DVDs , and the prompt keeps coming.
How do I get rid of this ??

The prompt is coming from the DVD itself. Interactual
player is included on many commercial DVDs so that people
without DVD players/decoders can watch the movies on
their computers. Three choices: turn autoplay off on the
DVD drive; let Interactual player install, or open Power
DVD and start the movie from there.
 
I believe Interactual is the software that lets PC Users access and view the
PC only 'extras' on the DVD, and does not contain any DVD decoding software
in itself.

He was only half wrong. You are correct in pointing out that there is no
decoder, but in addition to enabling viewing of special content,
Interactual Player will act as a DVD player if a decoder is already
installed.
