The 828026 update changes the way that Windows Media Player handles URL script commands that are embedded in a stream. Specifically, the update modifies Windows Media Player to recognize three new registry values that permit a user or an administrator to control the scenarios where the player will run URL script commands that are embedded in a stream.
