InterActual Player
I just borrowed a DVD from the library (Harry Potter) and this is the first time I have ever used a DVD on my system.
My question is this, I am wondering what exactly InterActual Player is and do I need to have this on my system to play DVD's?
Also, if I wanted to uninstall it, are there any special things I should know about when doing so?
I am very naive when it comes to this, as you can probably tell, and I'm hoping someone can give me some basic tips on this.
Also, I believe I posted this question to the wrong board as I do not have a Latitude system, I have a Dimension 8100. I don't know if this matters or not. Sorry.
Thank you.

IMHO, these "players" that are on DVDs are just extensions of Hollywood marketing. I always ignore these players and just use my software DVD player: WinDVD.

So, since I now know I don't really need this "program" to run DVD's, do you have any special advice for uninstalling it? I'm sure they'll be alot of extra files hanging around out there if I do a basic uninstall. Seems to always be.
If you don't, that's fine too. My initial question was answered and that's all that matters.
Thanks again.
