Floating square when video played

What is the reason for the floating square when I
play .mpg and .avi files. I've captured and encoded
these files myself of my home video using other tools.
Is this some type of license encoding issue with the
video files?

Regards
 
I should note that I'm using Windows Media Player 9 and
Windows XP. This floating square occurs in both Media
Player and Windows Movie Maker. The square is somewhat
like a watermark and bounces over the screen while the
video is played.
 
Looks like I finally found the problem. There was an
MPEG decoder from Elecard installed. I found this using
the properties on the video. I've deleted the codec
files and the video no longer has a floating watermark.
