I tried to open the HMI web TV with my Internet Explorer to save the stream with Orbit (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Download-manager-Orbit-Downloader-Record-HTTP-MMS-RTSP-RTMP-media-streams-Freeware.htm) Grab Pro, but Orbit replaced a 404 error with its ads. The program became extremely unpleasant! Besides replacing my 404 error page with ads, it doesn't allow to open web-pages that I can open with browser without this crappy add-on.

Many users are not satisfied with this feature and complain about spyware in the program...Well it is free, so this is an unpleasant compensation for that :(

The feature can be disabled in its Preferences (go to the Monitoring section in it and uncheck "Let Orbit suggestions on browser navigation error").
