[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1641375, member: 24160"] Never, ever, download a video player from any web site that tells you to download one for what is supposedly a free video - it [B]IS[/B] going to be an adware browser redirector in the best case scenario. If a site wants Flash, go directly to Adobe. If it wants Silverlight, go directly to Microsoft. If it is Vudu, Amazon or another of the immediately recognizable legitimate sites offering pay for videos and requiring their player (which is due to DRM), then you are pretty safe downloading their video player.
