StreamFab watching all clipboard copy?

Steve.Gruenwald

Since the 7.0.1.9 release, or maybe before, every time I copy a URL for an Amazon item - ANY item, copied from ANYWHERE, not just the Amazon site - StreamFab pops up asking if I want to download the video. This is very annoying and even disturbing. (a) NONE of the URLs I’ve copied have been for videos, just for other items I am considering buying from Amazon, and it is really annoying to keep having to close these popups. (b) The fact that it happens indicates that StreamFab has access to my clipboard. This seems like a serious security risk. If this access can’t be completely turned off, I will immediately uninstall StreamFab.

If SF is running and you didn’t turn that off in the settings, then yes of course it has access to everything you copy. That’s the first thing I disable after any install. I highly recommend you take the time to go through the settings and understand what is enabled / disabled and what choices you have for different services.
