whenever i stream from hulu, iexplorer.exe gets launched multiple times under the "system" user and not my log in. i dont know why this happens. and since the browser window doesnt pop up, i cant close it. also, the video starts to play on my laptop, on every single new instance so i get it playing multiple times. and it only happens with hulu. it has happened on a vista pc and on a windows 7 pc
any help?

Do you have COMODO installed? If so, this is a known issue with that security software. We have been in touch with them, and they say that their next version 4 due in December should work better with PlayOn.

In the interim, you can try the workaround outlined here.
