Re: AOL/WildTangent/ViewPoint Media Player

I don't think it's Mozilla's fault... Viewpoint likely includes a Mozilla plugin that gets installed if it finds Mozilla on the machine. Flash Player does the same thing.

So there's no need to uninstall Mozilla, they aren't involved.

BTW, the Viewpoint player is used to play those annoying video ads in the AIM ad bar. Removing it is a good thing and AIM will still work without it.

Re: AOL/WildTangent/ViewPoint Media Player

I agree kpatz See Profile. I am not about to uninstall Mozilla, just Viewpoint. It may be installed through something as simple as viewing a news story that uses Viewpoint Media Player as its default.
