2. launch program (not sure if you have to)
3. click on this link: http://www.playsc.com/live/

Figures... since when did the Chinese not do a backhanded deal like this?
To be honest, Korean programs have trojans up the ass too... but .. without it.... Live Reports gone would be sooo gay.

somebody didn't read the wiki article too closely

It has been found that TVants contains spyware. Once you connect to a particular channel, it connects to mayiad.com/ and it loads on to the user's computer a trojan dropper. The file names are usually rundll.exe, tmp1.exe, csrss.exe, tmp.exe. They are created in the user's Temporary Internet Files and in the Program Files or Program Files/Common Files.

Question: will the program work if I use a firewall to specially block the connection to that site only?

According to http://bbs.tvants.com/dispbbs.asp?boardID=9&ID=8838&page=1

Apparently they removed the supposed spyware from tvants and apologized to its users. At least that's what they say on their forums.

i'll do some checks on my own system.
so far nothing particularly dangerous except cookies...but i've uninstalled tvants until more definite evidence can be found.
