Answer

My recommendation would be to uninstall both JetAudio Player and K-Lite Codecs Pack and replace with VLC Media Player. There's no need to install a codecs package.

I'm not sure, but the programs you installed may have come bundled with other unwanted and/or unneeded software. Therefore I would also suggest using Malwarebytes Antimalware (Free Edition), AdwCleaner and JRT to remove the extra software that may have been installed.

Malwarebytes Antimalware-Free Edition (uncheck any offer of Premium trial during installation)

AdwCleaner

Hope this helps.
