What you are doing is removing the icon not the program. You need to go
to your control panel and click on add/remove to remove the Media
Player from your machine. Unfortunately the file associations will not
change and you will get an error once you remove the program and then
try to play music etc. You can follow Kelly's advice to change the
associations or simply reinstall Winamp. When you reinstall Winamp it
will associate all appropriate files to it even if Media Player is still
on your machine.
