I downloaded a few tracks via Limewire; rather rare live tracks of a Kinks Concert back in 1968. Anyway, when I had Rhythmbox 0.12.0 attempt to play the track it indicated that it was searching for a plug-in "Screen Application Decoder", then failed to find that application and proceeded to play the track which was an mp3.
I haven't used Windows in years (Windows for Workgroups was the last real Windows experiences I have had, although I have used a couple of business and library machines with what I think must have been Windows XP). Anyway, not knowing a whole lot about why an mp3 would need a "Screen Application Decoder", I thought that maybe it was some kind of trojan or virus unloader which would have been activated if I were running Windows.
Am I just being paranoid or did the Aliens at Area 51 really implant that Anal Probe in me last year at the VA Hospital.
