Viewpoint Media Player?

[sillygoosegirl]

Err, is this some virus or something? I've never heard of Viewpoint Media Player, but it claims to need to update itself and the dialog that came up gives me the options of updating or getting more info, but I'm not so keen on pushing any of the buttons. This is the third wacky no-options update I've gotten this week.

If I'm not confused here, Viewpoint is this totally evil spyware thing that if it's the one I'm thinking of, you need to remove all you can of with SpyBot, and then just start searching for files containing viewpoint in the name and deleting them. Please confirm this though, in case I've got this horribly confused with something else. I think it's the one that killed my sister's computer (which was already pure spyware and even SpyBot couldn't save it).

(I apologize if you know any of this. I'm extrapolating your level of knowledge about the subject from your post, and I may have aimed my advice too low

I would have thought I'd be able to trust Adobe!
