https site - it's perfectly safe  check the time and date settings on the pc - might be as simple as adjusting to the correct date

Its a fantastic little player, its light, no bulky crap you get with Media Player or the sack off poo Real Player. It just does what you want it to, play movies!

Never thought it would happen but for once I agree with Tunnie, I have used VLC PLayer for years and NEVER ever had a problem, even plays part downloaded files, I love it and would never use anything else.
