External information from Paul Collins:

• "ViewMgr" is not required to run at start up. Viewpoint Manager - automatic updates for ViewPoint products such as ViewPoint Media Player (as bundled with AOL, AOL Instant Messenger, Compuserve, etc). Can be run manually via Start -> Settings -> Control Panel by enabling auto-updates temporarily, re-booting and then disabling again

This annoying spyware 'plug-in' can be uninstalled or permanently deactivated by disabling it via the Services Manager. Look for Administrative Tools in the Windows Control Panel.

Part of Viewpoint Media Player. It actively listens on port 3149... Probably harmless, but I am not sure why it would need to listen to a port, so I am removing it.

I got this after going to Apple's site where I looked at the iPhone and watched the presentation of it's unveiling (useing QuickTime).

Attempted to access an external IP frequently. Removed from Control Panel the item - Viewpoint Manager

Stupid and annoying. Installs automatically with AIM. If you have AIM installed and then uninstall this, it will automatically be reinstalled when AIM is next opened. There's no way to install AIM wihtout this.
   

It just pops up to update once in awhile, takes some space and rather annoying. Didn't really lag my computer too much though. Although I am not aware what kind of info I could've leaked from my computer.

All I know is after this software installed itself with out my consent. Weird things happened when browsing the internet - such as searching in a major search engine beginning with a 'G' and clicking on the URL that appeared in the top of the list. The browser would go over to fictitious auction site page and not to the actual page.
   

It just popped into my computer when i got AIM. Its probably in the liscense agreement, but who is gonna read an 8 page liscense aggrement? Zone Labs caught on mine, I did'nt know what the heck it was. I'm going to delete this right now.

Popped up out of nowhere, but seems to be very active on my computer(s). Used Startup Control Panel to disable it for now.

I installed this plugin through a NASA Website. I don't think NASA is in the habit of allowing Spyware to Access their webpages. They have to much to lose by doing this.

The fact that this process doesn't seem to do anything is even more worrisome to me. It implies that this executable has been built to be sneaky.

AIM Uses it, not exactly sure how, but i'm not deleting my AIM account because of a silly utility. It's never prompted me to update it either (panda 06 takes care of a lot of that stuff) and i have a home-made gaming machine, so it doesn't drain my cpu at all.

I didn't even know I had it. I have done spyware and adware checks; nothing gets noted by them. I still think it is wrong that they install it on your computer without your permission. I think I'll get rid of it now.
  landhermie  

istalled with AIM (AOL instant messenger) i think if you uninstall the program aim wont work. its not too big of a deal, as it doesnt suck up any cpu. but still unwanted
  Nick  

spyware that came with AOL. Installs its self.
