With rumors about the impending doom--release of
Microsoft Internet
Exploder for Linux, this is a pre-created man page for
IE.
IE has been such a security problem for Windoze users,
that it stands
to reason that Microsoft won't deprive the Linux/UNIX
community of
such quality work.

NAME
ie - Microsoft Internet Explorer
SYNOPSIS
ie [ -acfghkp ] [ -m alternate-passwd-file ] [
-length of
time ]
DESCRIPTION
Ie is the web browser. The only web browser.
Netscape is
irrelevant. Opera is irrelevant. Ie is your
master. Kneel.
There are two ways to use ie: non-executed
binary and
insecure mode. The non-executed binary is the
mode ie
ships in. There are no flags or directions for
use in this
mode.
Options are:
-a
-c Clear filesystem. Ie will delete all
files for which
it has write permission on all mounted
filesystems.
After the first pass, Ie will begin
attempts at
obtaining root access so that the
remaining files can
be removed.
-f Same as -c, except that ie will
immediately begin
attempting root access, and will newfs
all mounted
filesystems.
-h Hack. Lets you link to other systems
running ie and
obtain their passwd files.
-k Randomly coredump. If you specify a
valid mailbox name
in parens, ie will mail the coredump
to them.
-p Post /etc/passwd to alt.2600.
-m [alternate] Gives you the opportunity to
specify an
alternate
passwd file to post.
-length How long should ie run crack on the
passwd file before
attempting to post?
AUTHOR
The usual gang of idiots.
