The Beast: Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0

[Giampy]

Dear geeks,
I use Windows XP SP3 and I tried to remove Windows Media Player 11 in this way:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-xp/products/windows-media-player/11/readme

When I started the uninstallation of "Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0" I read that such operation could compromise some programs. The list of programs at risk appeared and I realized that ALL the programs could be damaged, including many updates of Windows.
Is it possible?
What kind of monster is "Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0"?
