just looked at it, the authors messed up , so no it shouldn't work,  it
doesn't work here

they didn't get that error.jsp  is a java server page (something roughly
equivalent to asp and php) that sets the response code to something that
triggers the  res file to be loaded

Yup that's true the exploit actually didn't worked even if I was logged
in as Administrator or a normal user in Windows XPSp1 with all patches
installed except 811394.

It becomes really dangerous to use IE ...

Your test didn't work on my IESP1 under XP with all patches
excepting
811394. Absolutely no effect on WMP. My original WMP remains and
works.

It depends whether you were logging as a privileged user or not.
If not, then your browser can't delete the wmplayer.exe file, because
the only user that can change/delete the wmplayer.exe file is
privileged
user.
C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player>cacls wmplayer.exe
C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe BUILTIN\Users:R
                                              BUILTIN\Power Users:C
                                              BUILTIN\Administrators:F
                                              NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F


C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player>

The problem is just too many people are running their Windows with
Full Privileges.



Didnt matter what I logged in as. I normally am ADMIN, naturally but a
priveleged user, a very limited user - no difference. The exploit didnt
work.
