Bugs and Fixes
In Brief
Holey Windows Media Player
Microsoft has fixed another security hole in Windows Media Player, affecting versions 6.4, 7, and 7.1. The vulnerability centers on Windows Media Station (or .nsc) files, which allow the Player to deliver streaming media. A hacker could craft .nsc files to wreak havoc on your PC. Get the patch from Microsoft.
Problem Fixes for Palm, Handspring
Palm computing has released version 3.5.3 of its operating system. The update corrects minor glitches that prevented a few third-party programs from running properly and caused some users to lose data. Get the 19KB download from Palm.
Handspring says that a small number of Visor Prism and Visor Platinum owners have had similar problems with some third-party apps. If you upgraded to Palm OS version 3.5.2H1.4 and you've encountered this problem, you should revert to the previous OS, 3.5.2H1, rather than getting version 3.5.3. Hop to Handspring for a link to the older OS.
