You're welcome. As I mentioned earlier I had a number of links but it
was too much bother to post for those afflicted with scotomisation.

they weren't so cynical. And Media Player is one
of the best examples to fit their definitions. It conforms
to nearly every indicator of spyware that MS sets forth!

That's why I run Real and Quicktime alternative on the Windows box. No
more nags or spying.

Runs without permission, collects and communicates
information without consent, re-installs without
permission, attempts to circumvent security features...

Which is why I run ZA on the Windows box and *every* program has to
ask permission to call out.
