DA members,

just ran across these articles that i thought should be shared:
http://www.jakeludington.com/life/2008/warning-vlc-media-player-vulnerability/
http://digg.com/security/VLC_Vulnerability_Get_Patched

in short, even subtitle files can be malicious to your computer.

thanks for the heads up! I hope fansub groups are aware- at least the ones that release softsubs to the general community of jdramaholics.
