note 88877 deleted from function.fread by danbrown

Note Submitter: Tom B ---- James, You wouldn't necessarily have to have it built into the webserver. I run a site that used a loop/fread() solution. However, I was serving large files(over 7GB at the largest) and ran into scripting timeout issues. I ended up dynamically creating symlinks, to my files and redirecting to those. It's still vulnerable like you say, but the symlinks only last a few days. So the vulnerability window is short.
