spyware...
I wonder if the Mac version has EarthLink's spyware in it as the Windows version. I subscribe to Yahoo's Launch streaming music/video service on my PC and I loaded TotalAccess. After the install I noticed that there was excessive "re-buffering" while playing my music for weeks long and I didn't know what the problem was. I decided to uninstall this software and everything turned out to be normal. Also, searchinga round on DSLreports there were some reported cases of TotalAccess as being a suspect as spyware.
I believe it.
