Why don't you try it and find out?

Brad probably just forgot to pay the bill to host the site, if anything- he has kept it up for a long time without updating it on a regular basis so I doubt he has fully lost interest in it (and would not blame him a bit, after nearly two decades, if that has changed).

Dude, remember RealVideo?

Fun fact, if only tangentially related: Recent releases of RealPlayer don't recognize RealAudio as a valid file type.

Oh yes. Their headquarters are right across the street from Safeco Field.

Color me surprised. I figured it would've made the malware list years ago.

Oh, lord knows it was on mine. But I have friends who work(ed?) there, so I have to be slightly tolerant. :)
