Re: Viewpoint Media Player

It also says that it basically sends info back to the Viewpoint server; I suppose that doesn't hurt, I hope.
It's doing it without your consent and in a secretive manner. What exactly is it sending to Viewpoint behind your back? If it was me, it would be off my pc. Anything that installs software without your knowledge, sends information across the net without your consent and basically acts in a sneaky manner can't be good. If i've not made myself clear let me confirm. I WOULD GET RID OF IT! But hey, it's up to you.
