Microsoft Fucking Us Again

Apparently they've released a "patch" that updates IE and WMP.

Before it was just the WMP 9 People but now anyone that runs the update and trys to view a ASF, WMV, and AVI that are protected behind an .htaccess file that uses basic authentication will be SOL.

Gotta love Microsoft for constantly fucking things up.

Find a way to keep your video outside of the .htaccess protected directory!

Tell us how! Share the love. Hopefully it isn't referrer based.

I think embbeded players are still okay, and you can always do Right -Click to Save as" deal.

We are looking into using session ids and creating symbolic links based on the seesion id. Have not thought it all thru, just a starting point to a possible solution . . .

Microsoft
