ii) installing RealPlayer

Oh no, you didn't do that, did you? I truly loathe Real, they install stuff on a system I really don't want. Stuff that seemingly cannot be disabled, stuff that insists on popping up windows, stuff that just won't go away.

Even Microsoft is (so far) less evil than Real.

Couldn't agree more. Real Player and Quicktime are two pieces of bloatware that cause pain and anguish, do much the same thing, and are both sadly necessary because of websites that support only one or the other (BBC, Teletubbies, Tractor Tom, etc).

...and that's why I deliberately installed an old version (still available on Real's web site if you look) rather than the latest bit of bloatware. It is, as people note, a bit of a Necessary Evil if you want to view much of the video content on the Web.
