No, but especially if you are using RealPlayer, it's a complete resource hog, and almost always will make your machine run poorly, and cause freaky crashes and what not.

I feel the need to bump this...REALPLAYER SUCKS UP TONS OF CPU, it bogs down internet connections, it spams you, it has a habit of installing itself as a startup application every time you use it (this is the years of Sys. Admin. in me coming back to haunt y'all after my industry imploded :p) so...avoid it unless you absolutely have no choice. It stinks and can foul up your computer badly.

Thanks Smokey -- so is there any way to clean things up and get my system running well again? It has gotten progressively worse each day that I've been on here. In fact, I don't even have a BagCam open right now because everything crashes when I do. And that's tough for a BagCamAddict!!
