 > Subject: castration of realplayer ?
 how do I get realplayer to stop putting itself as the player file
 helper in explorer ? if I delete the file helper prefs
 it puts itself there again whenever realplayer is started, very often
 with trying to start both quicktime and realplayer it leads to
 crashes. OS 9 , it was not so in OS 8.6 with the same applications, I
 want to see realplayer sent to where the pepper grows !

I had a similar problem with Acrobat.  I didn't want it to run in the
browser (IE) yet when I changed the preference it kept changing back.  My
solution was to remove the plug in from IE's plug ins folder.  Now it runs
as a separate application, which is how I prefer it.

thanks david
I already tried that, but the realplayer doesnt need its plugin 
anymore, to perform that task - my idea now is to remember to always 
forcequit realplayer, because I suspect it does its gruesome deeds 
before closing the application.
