Update RealNetworks Media Player

Posted by geeknews at 10:26 AM on March 3, 2005

I think most of us feel that RealPlayer is an over-bloated, trouble-ridden piece of software. But, there are still a few places that demand we have it installed to view their online content. So I thought I better pass this along to you.
RealNetworks updated its media players on Wednesday in order to prevent malicious code from running on a victims’ computer when an infected SMIL or WAV file is opened. The flaw, which affects all RealPlayer versions, can be fixed by downloading the latest update from Real’s Web site.
