Microsoft Windows users need to watch out for several flaws in non-Microsoft media players, security experts said.
A sample program hit the Internet on Wednesday, showing by example how malicious coders could compromise Windows computers by using a flaw in the handling of a widespread graphics format by Microsoft's software.
Microsoft has been waiting for security researchers to say that its Windows operating system has a lower total cost of ownership. One finally has, but that's not good news.
Microsoft warned customers on Monday that a security hole in Windows 2000 and the company's Web server software is allowing online attackers to take control of corporate servers.
Investigations continued Friday into how source code for Microsoft's Windows operating system made its way onto the Internet.

Microsoft warned customers on Monday that a security hole in Windows 2000 and the company's Web server software is allowing online attackers to take control of corporate servers.
A hacker group releases code designed to exploit a widespread Windows flaw, paving the way for a major worm attack as soon as this weekend, security researchers warn.
A class of attacks that allows a user to take control of any PC or server could leave computer systems in corporations and Internet cafes vulnerable to attack, a researcher says.
The MSBlast worm supports the view that patches, while necessary to increase the security of specific computers, can't be relied upon to protect large networks.
Less than two months after launching its Windows Server 2003 operating system, Microsoft has released a security patch to fix a vulnerability that could let malicious sites run damaging code on the server.
Microsoft released its first monthly security update on Wednesday, following a new schedule that attempts to ease the load on overburdened system administrators.
