Yes, I know we are all innocent of downloading MP3s from the net but this is still news. Some joker's putting code into MP3 files that launches porno sites when played back.

Sounds like a major security bug in the MS and RA players. Good thing that I don't use those pieces of junk to play my MP3 files with. WinAmp and the Empeg all the way, baby.

Yeah... Porn on a 128x32 screen somehow just doesn't do it for me...

I dunno, pr0n in the car could be rather dangerous... I think Empeg would have to have a SERIOUS disclaimer on that...

Cute. All they do is take files in some other format (WMA, Real, etc.) and rename them with an MP3 extension.
