<span style="color: lightblue">Not as critical as some you see (according to Secunia), but probably a good idea to be careful of it. Especially if you're often downloading things that are RAR compressed... and it does allow arbitrary code to be run.

Well, that is ofcourse unless you use a better archiving program to extract the RARs. [img]smile.gif[/img]

EDIT: clarity... yet again.

Ah, I think I'm ok on this one, even though I am fairly heavy on RAR's.
