SCRABBLE Rack Attack from HP Media Center

What is SCRABBLE Rack Attack from HP Media Center?

SCRABBLE Rack Attack is a trial version included with the WildTangent Games App, pre-installed with the HP PC. The installed Hewlett-Packard My Game Center software is required to run this game.

Overview

Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The setup package generally installs about 9 files and is usually about 15.39 MB (16,134,573 bytes).
