I bought and installed the Mag254 last week, found this site and started to read. Wanting to see what was out there I downloaded and tested a couple of playlists. I found that if there is not an end of"meu8" on the Url then these urls will not work. But I also started trying some of the links on my PC. Somewhere along the line, I picked up a real nasty virus. This one, I first noticed on my Mag, then on a local net drive. I first started working on the Mag and got it back up and running without any outside playlists. Later, while using the PC found that the net drive would not load. In trying to restore the drive the computer acted up and started giving the "blue screen of death". I had a back up drive, but it was a year old. I have been working, one night all night, to get the computer restored. I am now close enough to format the raid drives and restore with the back up drive. Believe me, I will not go looking for streaming sites or outside, untested playlists. The one posted here seems to work but has a nagging close captioning in middle of screen. Please use caution on playlists from straingers! ! ! ! . .
 
Very good advice, has we all download files, programs and even pictures that you might use for avatar it is strongly recommended that you scan with your antivirus program no matter which site you think of is safe.
 
Thanks for your post lowtech. Hate that you had to get a bug before writing it but it may keep someone in the future from ending up with the same.

It is unclear if you got the playlist from here or not though. Please direct me to the thread containing if it did come from here so I can remove it.
 
Thanks, I was worried we had a bomb on board :)
Hope you have your pc straightened back out- I hate doing mine with a passion...

Yes, I saw this but, well had a case of HUA. I learned the hard way and thought I would just iterate that I did not pay attention and payed the cost.
