What do network admins see when WM Recorder runs?

 

Hi all,

I've been using WM Recorder 8 to download news video streams while I'm at work. Now, they've been pretty lenient about 'net usage in the past, as long as we use common sense, but after a couple of bad incidents, they've decided to take measures to log and record all network usage.

Now, my question is, what are they going to be seeing when I'm recording videos? Will it just look like I'm watching a video like normal, or are they going to see something that'll look alarming?

Thanks,
Aberration

It will look like you're watching/listening to streaming content.

p.s. When you use WM Recorder in the PRO or ADA mode it just captures packets from the WMP so there is no way you can be tracked from outside. With other media stream recorders it is sometimes possible for a content provider to notice the difference, but there is nothing alarming for a network admin except the fact that you use network bandwidth and spend your working hours on things other than work.
