Codec Guide Update

The folks at Codec Guide recently added an update to their K-Lite codec pack, which is now at version 4.1.7. While you are there, check out their useful tips as well. A really good tip is the one about using KeepVid.com to download streaming videos.

When you get there and can't find the download link, check out KeepVid.
