I'm sorry, but I simply don't know what you're talking about.

I've told you what you need to do to get an up-to-date, reliable version of our software.

Failing that, feel free to point your copy of VLC at the URL
	rtsp://live555.com/crashMe
and watch VLC crash (without anything malicious happening).  Let's just hope that there aren't other servers out there somewhere that are less charitable.

Suit yourself...
