    It's not the files, it's the player itself that's the problem. Real
    Player has always been known (along with anything relating to AOL)
    for worming it's way deep into your system, hijacking file
    associations, putting itself on autostart, and also sending data back
    to Real Player Central. It's not THAT horrible - probably we all use
    it at times. The fact that it tries to cling to it's own proprietary
    standard as a way to have market share says a lot in itself. In a
    world of Avi, mpeg, and mov files, Real is probably not long for the
    world..
