"The remote host is using Winamp, a popular media player for Windows. 

It's possible that a remote attacker using a specially crafted M3U or
PLS file can cause a buffer overflow in the version of Winamp
installed on the remote Windows host, resulting in a crash of the
application and even execution of arbitrary code remotely subject to
the user's privileges.  Note that these issues can reportedly be
exploited without user interaction by linking to a '.pls' file in an
IFRAME tag." );
