Dear VideoLAN users, The VideoLAN Team is pleased to announce the release of VLC media player 0.8.6d. This version is aimed at fixing security vulnerabilities in the Active X plugin and the the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) library which affect VLC media player 0.8.6c and lower. For more technical details see our advisory: http://www.videolan.org/sa0703.html. We would like to thank Core Security Technologies for reporting the Active X vulnerability and working with us to help protect our endusers security. Improvements in this release include better Video Output compatibility on Mac OS X and Apple Remote support on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Please note that Mac OS X 10.3.9 is no longer supported. The full list of changes can be found on our tracking site: http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/browser/tags/0.8.6d/NEWS. We strongly recommend all users to update to this new version and as always to only download from the main VideoLAN website. Several sites (neowin.net, gratisdrivers.net, xiabar.com, chatzworld.com, multihunter.com, tweakers.net, computerbase.de) have linked to or still offer (filehippo.com, majorgeeks.com, kaldata.com) early and broken development versions from before the official release was made available. We kindly ask all downloading sites to stop mirroring, remove the broken files and to update any download links to the appropriate mirror links in our download section. Thank you! Enjoy this release, The VideoLAN Team
