I think it is even worse: When code is run on the web server then it cannot infect my local machine. But todays web pages use scripting more and more (which I mostly block with NoScript). In this case I would download and run code with each and every click. In terms of security this is a nightmare! With local software I can do backups so I can go back to a system that works in case something smashed it. I have full control and can use it offline too. I would do changes only seldom (if everything runs ok), i.e. I have switched off most update mechanism (including Windows updates). No need to change a running system. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
