Lest anyone gets an overinflated opinion of Lotus Notes, it's not actually invunerable to viruses and worms, it's just that those designed to work on the Microsoft Outlook "family" of email clients usually won't work on Lotus Notes and vice versa. Since Lotus Notes is used as an email client almost exclusively by corporations, few of those that have the free time and inclination write worms/viruses have it available to them. So that "invunerability" is actually "security through obscurity". (and before anyone asks, no I'm not one of those disruptive criminals, I'm a tester and paid to break things on MY systems). -Dave _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
