[Kunz, Peter] At first hand, by what I heard it's similar to
NetBus. Now, what I'd REALLY be interested in knowing is if BO2K poses any
danger if users are working with local user permissions, not Administrator
permissions. No one was able to naswer that bit to me for NetBus. I'd have
said no problem, reasoning that IMHO NetBus would require some low level
system calls only available with local Admin perms. Also, could such a
program, if run under user privs, install itself in some startup script and
always be running?...
