ramblinrose Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Hello! I hope you can help me out...I no longer use AOL dial up. I used DSL now. AOL and RealPlayer are not in Add/Remove programs anymore. But I have found these files from search. So I was wondering if it's ok to delete? Also what is *Learn2Player (uninstall only)? That was in my Add/Remove. I will try to send screenshots I took and I hope it will show up here...Thanks! hugs, Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators TwistedMetal Posted June 5, 2005 Moderators Share Posted June 5, 2005 You need AOLMediaPlaybackControl.exe for websites like www.moviefone.com I would leave all the AOL's, some are used for other stuff. As for Real Player, feel free to delete them all.

ramblinrose Posted June 5, 2005 Author Share Posted June 5, 2005 Thank you Twisted Metal and DjLizard! I'm glad I waited and ask first....I wish I had not tried to remove AOL in the first place. But it was Try AOL Broadband and I didn't want it. It was already installed when I brought a new pc. I will leave those in i386 files alone. I have windows media and dvdsentry for movies? I don't use it maybe one time I did. I don't remember. Anyway, thanks!! Glad I could come in here for help....hugs, Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyhon63 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 dont know... i have never install realplayer on my system... not even once... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well I never installed it but It is there. Maybe it comes along with aol which I always have had but now We are thinking about just going with our cable email. But I am a really wonder what that Learn2player thing is. I have seen it on my other computer and thought it was an adwear but we just stripped this computer down and reloaded stuff on and Aol was one of them and now the real player and that learn2player is on it too. But I can't figure out what it is or what it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted September 14, 2005 Moderators Share Posted September 14, 2005 why is aol and real player bad <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's no need for AOL since there's many ISP's that don't install so much crap just to connect to the Internet. For Dial-up users check a local ISP since they typically just have you just configure what's already installed on Windows without having to install some bloated application. I say this as a former AOL member who grew very tired of it. RealPlayer I haven't used for years. There's the freeware, no adware, no spyware, and no malware: Real Alternative. And while we're at it there's also QuickTime Alternative. Edit: Fixed typo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
