Re: viewpoint manager

If you have AOL installed or Instant Messenger (AIM).... prevent Viewpoint Manager, Viewpoint Media Player from being recreated every time you run the AOL software:
Open AOL
Go to Help on the toolbar
Select About AOL
Hit Ctrl D and a secret panel can be accessed which will allow you to disable all desktop and IM features associated with Viewpoint.
Another way to prevent Viewpoint from being recreated every time you run the AOL software is:
Click C:\Program Files\AOL 9.0\Jiti (a hidden folder).
Rename viewpoint.exe to viewpoint.old.

Also look in Services for Viewpoint Manager Service - Viewpoint Corporation
Click 'properties' and disable it.
