: Doreen,
:
: The Real Message Center is a component of the Real One player that is
: installed on your computer.  The RealOne player plays the Real Media files
: that you can find on some web sites.  These ifles usually end in .rm or
: .ram.  It is not as popular as it used to several years ago.  You can feel
: free to uninstall the program.  If you have to play real media files, you
: can search for and install the Real Alternative that is much smaller and
: much less intrusive.
:
: Hope this helps
