I watch a lot of movies and WMA files on WMP. I get prompted by Z/A a lot for setup_wm.exe for access to the internet and I usually grant it thinking it to be harmless. But looking at my Z/A logs, I noticed that setup_wm.exe goes to different destination DNS's like "my.ebay.com". Should I be concerned?
