| 632194 | 2008-01-20 19:24:00 | Hi Guys I am shattered ! My Windows Media Player will stop running in the year 2155 ! That is scandalous - how can a company sell a program that has a built in expiry date in it ! I only found this out by error, one of my PC's clock is faulty and when I re-boot It selects a date and time at random. This time it selected 2167 ! And this caused my Windows Media Player version 9.00 to not start and come up with an error message that it only functions until 2155 ! Come On Bill ! Regards Digby |

| 632195 | 2008-01-20 19:45:00 | I just recommend using WMP10 for the nonce. It is better than WMP9...and not as bad as WMP11 with all the DRMs and lahdeedah. I like to keep things simple..except when I am fooling with "L"-things. Support for v10 goes into infinity and beyond. |
