As an alternative you might wish to simply send him your WHOLE 'SlingMedia' folder from the 'Program Files' folder of the computer you have used to setup yhe slingbox. (You can use Yahoo Messenger, it works really fine!). The only thing that he will have to do after having received the folder, is to open the it, locate the 'Slingplayer' executable (.exe), create a shortcut of the'.exe' on the desktop and launch yhe Slingplayer WITHOUT actually installing the player on his computer. He could also make a copy of the folder, put it on an USB key, go to somebodyelse's computer, plug the key, locate the Slinplayer.exe and launch it without installation , of course. Do not forget to make sure that you both have available the same archiving program (like Zip or RAR), because Yahoo or other messaging program won't send a folder, but only a file, so you will have to archive the 'Slingmedia' folder before sending it. Your friend will have to decompress it and that,s all! Good luck! If you have any other question, don't hesitate asking!
