Thanks for the help, but update isn't it. I also have that function.
It just checks for a newer version of Real Player. This thing seems to
be a program within a program that saves all video to some folder
whenever it sees some kind of tag (I'm assuming here) on a web page. I
use a site called hsx.com, that's Hollywood Movie Stock Exchange. I
know, the url looks like it might be something else. Anyway, they have
adds on their pages that will pop up the Real Player downloader thing.
This just started happening a month or so ago, so I'm also assuming
this is something relatively new. And I can't find anyway to shut the
thing off in the preferences of either Real Player or the RP Downloader.

Not sure what Real's Update Manager is but in Windows, Real Player has
an option to turn off AutoUpdate. If this will help, it's:
Tools>Preferences>Automatic Services>AutoUpdate, and then uncheck
"Automaticallydownload and Install important updates". Good luck.
