FYI to anyone who hasn't seen this yet ...
Quoted from today's issue of NewsScan (http://www.newsscan.com):
> SECURITY HOLE IN NETSCAPE

> Because of a security hole in the Netscape browser, about a thousand
> computers have been infected in a way that would allow a network vandal to

> programming languages in their browsers.
(Actually, I really think this is incorrect. It should read, "Network
security experts are suggesting that Netscape users should disable Java,
period". (-: )
