Hi Gerald, You should have both the admin tool & video intercept in your control panel. I don't know why the admin tool is missing but, if you were able to download a new video intercept, & run it, that is supposed to re-install the admin tool. Hope this helps. Take care. Mike

The only thing that comes close is the item labeled Freedom Scientific Video Intercept. Is this the item I should remove and then reinstall? Now I'm totally confused. Maybe I better load up on eggnog tonight. LOL!
