-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello? I don't think that should make any difference. I should be able to visit absolutely any website on the Internet without any danger to my computer or the data stored on it. Any browser which allows otherwise has a bug. Javascript is not inherently a virus vector. Flawed implementations might be; the language itself is not. Similarly for anything else. In reality, with a properly-configured, good quality operating system (probably a UNIX-type system), one ought to be able to run full native code without any danger to one's computer or data (think: under the NOBODY account on Linux).
Just my 1/50th of a dollar. Chris Gordon Burditt wrote: [snip] > Browsers don't read unsolicited web sites.
