Someone correct me if I am wrong here..... Some/all DVD disc's have the necessary software required on the disc for a DVD drive to play DVD's. The catch is however.... these free programs have spyware in them and when playing DVD's you will be offered this free player even if you doon't need it. Is PCfriendly one of them ?????
