What is Winamp.exe?

Winamp is a media player for Windows-based PCs and Android devices, written by Nullsoft, now a subsidiary of AOL. It is proprietary freeware/shareware, multi-format, extensible with plug-ins and skins, and is noted for its graphical sound visualization, playlist, and media library features.

About Winamp.exe (from Nullsoft Inc.)

“The Ultimate Media Player for Android just went Pro! The Pro Bundle offers enriched audio, premium features & customization, and is available as an upgradable in-app purchase.”

Overview

winamp.exe executes as a process with the local user's privileges usually within the context of Windows Explorer. It is set to be run when the PC boots and the user logs into Windows (added to the Run registry key for the current user). It has been configured with a firewall exception which allows both inbound and outbound network communication without being blocked. It configures an autoplay handler withing explorer.exe named WinampPlayMediaOnArrival that will launch the program automatically. It is installed with a couple of know programs including Winamp published by Nullsoft, Inc and InFlac 1.1.1 published by Michael Facquet.

“This plug-in allows to play native FLAC files with Winamp. It stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. It is similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality: you get a perfect copy of your CD tracks, but with files significantly smaller than WAVs.”
