Legacy Update: Get back online, activate, and install updates on your legacy Windows PC

Microsoft has released an update for Windows Media Player so that you can more easily manage the behavior of URL script commands.

• When a content owner creates an audio or video stream, they can add script commands (such as URL script commands and custom script commands) to be encoded in the stream. When the stream is played back, the script commands can trigger events in an embedded player program, or they can open your browser and then navigate to a Web page. This behavior is by design.
  
  This update changes the way that Windows Media Player handles URL script commands that are embedded in a stream.
