Why would anyone want to use this closed format anyway, if your that up job's bum cheeks you'd use this I guess you'd deserve an exploit or two anyway.

"In a security notice, Apple explains the bug stems from flaws in the way Windows versions of QuickTime handle URLs in the qtnext field of QTL files."

Nice spin. Smoooooth. "...flaws in the way Windows..." Why let truth get in the way of good spin?

Error in your app? Sloppy out-sourced programing, or even sloppy in-house moneys doing the work? EASY! Blame MS!

Sorted!
