Hi, I have Windows Vista 64 bit. Every so often an icon named "FFU" on the bottom right of my taskbar appears and then disappears. It sometimes coincides when I'm watching a video in VLC.

I've clicked on FFU before it disappeared and a list of options appear. One of the 20 options was crop. Then it disappears. Is FFU a program of somekind? is it spyware or a virus? I'm getting really curious as to what this is.

I have malwarebytes anti-malware and Avast Virus protection installed. I have scanned my system with Adaware and Spybot search and Destroy but nothing was found. Any info is greatly appreciated.
 
Probably FFDshow. It shouldn't be appearing when VLC is running. In fact, that seems pretty impossible. But either way, it's a set of codecs that's second to none.
