realPlayer
 

Why the foook does it install and take over everything EVEN THOUGH you quite clearly un-check the boxes that say if you want it to be your default player?? :mad: :mad:

Needed it yesterday to listen to the Football on Charlton radio - nice to here how BORO smashed them into the Championship :thumb:

Bloody cheatin lyin *******s ....... confused.com is the same - I said do NOT disclose my e-mail ...... what do they do???? YES!!! Every spam there is is now on my once CLEAN account!!!! :mad: Warning - set up a hotmail account called Insurance or something!!

i use Real Alternative 1.51 :)

I use a different email address every time I have to give one (I have a number of domains set up so this is easy) and am yet to receive any spam addressed to the one I used for confused, a few reminders from insurance companies about their quotes but that's it.

Totally agree about RealPlayer though - totally horrible, makes Microsoft look fair and reasonable:)

Realplayer really sucks. why the BBC insist on still using it beggars belief! :(

Go to Start/Run... Type in msconfig and press enter. Go to the tab Startup and uncheck the real player box. Restart your computer and it won't run!

Cheers :thumb:

For avoiding e-mail spam use mailinator.com

Realplayer is to computers what Pete Lewis is to Scoobynet;)

No matter what you do you can't get rid of it
It pops up in places without being asked
Behaviour defies logic
No-one would care or notice if it disappeared altogether..

Annoying - isn't it Pete;)
