haha... If it took this long for someone to run a packet sniffer on the real player traffic and see the GUID, how long is it going to take for someone to actually read and understand the code?? I noticed the GUID several months ago while setting up an Real's RTSP proxy kit. And you know what? I don't give a damn about it.

Also, Zonelabs has a nice little program called ZoneAlarm which allows per-program internet access restrictions on Win9x systems. It can't "protect" against GUIDs and things but will prevent 100% against programs that shouldn't be accessing the internet (like BO2k).
