  1. Re:old news or winamp site not updated? on WinXP and WinAmp Vulnerable to Malicious MP3s · · Score: 1

    In the top right corner of the winamp site, click the folded corner... it'll take you to the old WINAMP site with the older downloads -

  2. Curious... on WinXP and WinAmp Vulnerable to Malicious MP3s · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I've been a winamp user since windows 95 -> I've been a Micro$oft user since DOS -> I still use winamp because it's small, takes up nearly no memory and doesn't tax my processor with the right settings. It doesn't surprise me that this [vulnerability] was discovered, I knew that I could download an mp3 and it could harm my computer back in the day so I guess that someone finally decided to announce that they were unsafe??

    If the name Micro$oft appears on a product, it's guaranteed unsafe... if you are running a product on a Micro$oft product, it's guaranteed unsafe.

    I know Linux isn't perfect[to some it is], I know MAC OS isn't[to some it is], I know Windows isn't perfect[If anyone thinks it is, get informed then talk to me] Each have their own good and bad points but one of these takes the bad points from the other two, multiplies them by 10 and puts a price tag on it that is insane compared to the other two... GUESS WHO?
