I ran my "XSOFTSPY" program and it picked up Viewpoiint Toolbar as adaware
and security threat. I have not downloaded Viewpoint toolbar or media and I
did unistall only to find it was back on my computer. I have the Regular WMP
10 so I dont know why this keeps getting into my pc. any info or help is
appreciated. thanks Ray

Hi RAYNYC5,

I'm not sure if this is your situation, but Viewpoint Media
is bundled with the AOL browser and the stand-alone AOL Instant Messenger.
If this is the case, it can be removed through Control Panel > Add/Remove
Programs. However, if you upgrade the browser or AIM, it will be
re-installed. Just remove it again. Neither program needs it to function.

Hope this helps,
Dean-Dean
