bobad, that is pure stupidity and ignorance.
Some updates, say for IE, will prevent exploits to the browser which can occur when a user opens a webpage. A firewall isn't going to prevent this, an antivirus may (depending on how recent the exploit it is and how good the AV is) and antispyware software is certainly not going to fix it.
Update your Windows, its not just for the fixes but for updates like .NET Framework 2.0.

bourgeoisdude means Media Player Classic.
However, Paradise-FH- is still right as even Media Player Classic will not play Real Player files until the correct codecs are installed.
Real Alternative Lite is just the codecs while Real Alternative Regular is the codecs and Media Player Classic.
Once the codecs have been installed you can play RM files on just about any player.
