    I'd suggest you don't bother.

    Read this which is about C4's 4OD service, which runs the same software.

    Horrible piece of software, hogs system resources and acts as a p2p server so will cause all sorts of problems for your connection.

    Yo can disable the sharing, and the iPlayer software is a lot slicker than C4's

    It is the same Kontiki malware just slightly better packaged.

    I wouldn't have it anywhere near my PC. If i really want anything off the BBC, C4 or Sky on demand services I would install it on an old PC and disconnect it as soon as the programme has downloaded.

    If they want to offer free downloads then great but they are not getting free use of my (bloody expensive) bandwith for it.
