   I don't know what OS you're running, but if you're running windows you
would have had to study the WMF vulnerability to determine if it applied to
you.   And then, there are always things like

  "Vulnerability in Windows Media Player Plug-in with Non-Microsoft
Internet Browsers Could Allow Remote Code Execution (911564): MS06-006"

  But if you're running something other than Windows, the strategy might be
different.
