Real Player security flaw

[rh71]

Bashers and non-users of RealNetworks' products can leave now.

This is a warning to those who do use it or have it installed for whatever reason:

RealNetworks' media player software contains vulnerabilities
that could let an attacker take control of a PC on which the
software is used to download multimedia files, the company
confirmed this week. IDG News Service, 02/06/04.

I don't disagree. I have it installed for a reason, not because I like it. :disgust:

Posting this was meant to help people out, not have people make unnecessary comments for no reason other than to put it down. WTF is the point of that ?

By us making unnessisary comments, we effectively keep bumping it, which in the end helps your goal, since the thread is more visable.

RealPlayer IS a security flaw.

 

[DnetMHZ]

Isn't realplayer itself a security flaw???

 

[KingNothing]

mplayerc + RealAlternative works.

 

[Mavrick007]

Yah, I use RealAlternative too and it works ok for playing all the .rm and .ram media.
You don't need to install real player this way.
