Corp000085 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 any update from someone watching local tv? The link at buffalobills.com is currently dead for the realaudio stream of the PC. Hopefully the thing starts at 5:30 and not 5:15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buford T. Justice Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I hope so. And I hope WGRZ gets on the ball and puts up a live feed. I don't have realplayer at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catholic Guilt Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I have downloaded it and have no problems with "spyware and junk", maybe its those "other" sites you visit and download from. 553673[/snapback] When you install RealPlayer, it will add a process called realsched.exe to your startup configuration. realsched.exe periodically checks the Internet for updates. Even worse, even if you take it out of your startup configuration in the registry, simply running RealPlayer will make it return. While realsched.exe is relatively benign, I don't like processes running on my system without my permission. Here's how to disable it. - Launch RealPlayer - Click on the Tools and choose Preferences - Under the Automatic Services category, choose Message Center - Press the button marked "Configure Message Center" - UNCHECK the option labeled Checking - Check for new messages - Choose Yes when the warning pops-up If you haven't already, run MSCONFIG to remove it from your startup configuration as well. But then again, I'm a system Admin and I'm just pulling this stuff out of my butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarthur31 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I have no idea why real player or quicktime need to run at startup when they are rarely used. This is how crapware is defined. Anything taking up PC resources (read: RAM) for no reason, is spyware, etc. Look it up dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
