that's one thing, however if the recipient of that password then used it to withdraw money from your account unauthorized, that would then move to criminal law. With his source code you could definitely proove intent, but beyond that I dunno. The other thing is if you are using reputable projects the odds of someone writing malware into it is slim. I don't see many criminals declaring their guilt in such a blatant way. I assert, without any evidence, OSS is less likely to contain malware. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
