You've been warned...

if you have a file/video you really want to see, get the binary download there and run that to convert the file into something you can play without downloading the crapware.  It worked for me for one file.  The binary is a single .exe file that runs all by itself - nothing to install.  The file was still fake though - what I downloaded wasn't what the video file was so it's probably yet another Hollywood tactic to get us to stop...
