[X4U] Quicktime 7.3.1 update and Flash

[H Huff]

Apple's description of the update mentions disabling QT's Flash media  
handler:

"Description: Multiple vulnerabilities exist in QuickTime's Flash  
media handler, the most serious of which may lead to arbitrary code  
execution. With this update, the Flash media handler in QuickTime is  
disabled except for a limited number of existing QuickTime movies  
that are known to be safe."


Since I view a lot of Flash based content (YouTube type stuff), which  
I often download using Perian, I've hesitated to install this  
update.  Does anyone have any feedback on what effect the update has  
on YouTube type material?

TIA,
Harry
