Explanation (?): |
The Windows Media Services (WMServer.exe) service provides streaming media across the Internet for Media Player 10 servers. This allows users to listen and/or watch non-static media files, such as live recordings, through a native Windows based system. This is done through the Windows Media Format, which provides great compression and good file quality. If this computer is running a media server for Windows Media then this service should be left on automatic. If you are not then this service should be uninstalled through add/remove components in the add/remove menu. |

"Why, of course, the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship[...] Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country." - Herman Goering: Intelligence office interview at Nuremberg, 1946/4/18
