WORKS w/10.4.2 HERE
kkrimmer- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I find it works fine with Tiger 10.4.2 on 5 macs, and on our 10.3 machines. Note: this resolved our problems getting WMV files to play right after updating Safari or Firefox. Just Add wmv as a protocol and find the WMV player. Restart. A great alternative to WMV player is Flip4Mac.
Great Before, Especially Useful Now
RAngol- Pros
- Cons
- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is now being recommended on MacFixIt and MacInTouch (as well as elsewhere) as *the* solution while awaiting Apple security update to ALL Internet applications as mentioned by others. If Changing "help" helper application from Help Viewer to Chess.app doesn't work (*may* not work in 10.2.6 or 10.2.8) try DVD Player.app or some other app which will launch if triggered by the exploit. Exploit is also blocked. If you persist in using Safari for the present also disable the "open safe downloads automatically" default preference in Safari. In Camino and other browsers this is turned off by default. Check yours. Also great for assigning a specific FTP client, other apps not available in Internet pref pane (or elsewhere), etc. etc. 6 Stars.
Not overwhelmed...

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Not bad, but it would be a lot more like the old Internet Config if it handled helper apps for downloaded files better. Right now it seems to employ MIME-types, which is pretty clunky. File types would be better.
excellent

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />ridiculous that apple got rid of the old internet config prefs in the first place - it drives me nuts that i can't control what app is used for what.
