It is Winamp 5.666. Yes, it is later (and greater) than the discontinued Winamp 5.7.Ariszló @ WinCustomize & DeviantArt

Security with old non pathced winamp?
What about potential security problems with having a really old program that doesn't get patched?
I mean it is almost 3 years old now. I still use it and love it, but I wonder if it in some ways is a security threat?
It connects to the internet. It has its own internet browser, it runs plugins, it can be made to use windows explorer to open stuff etc...
I don't like having a program like this that isn't being patched...

Also, mind you, that probably the weakest link is the browser, it's not like you browse the net with it (I swear I hope you don't). So I would guess it would take downloading some malicious plug-in or malware targeting winamp specifically, or some how some black hat getting a hold of whatever domain names that are associated.

I don't know about you, but Winamp still plays my music. Is there a feature that you're missing?
