[78-L] Help identifying an artist/tune

[David Lennick]

In this case, it installed itself (or I inadvertently installed it) when I 
opened the particular file. Thereafter, any links I tried to open or even old 
ones I'd stored would default to QuackTime and not play properly. Repeated 
attempts to remove it failed to work..only when the whole computer needed a 
major overhaul was I finally rid of it. It may be great for some purposes, but 
since I'm not a download kind of guy and don't keep libraries of tunes (I don't 
even own an ipod), it's not for me.
