LOL! Thanks for that link :) I've always wondered how winviruses run under wine. On a related note, how hard would it be to write a script that searches $HOME for email addresses and then mail itself to those addresses? I understand if you set the owner of the script to root and set the execute bit, and then put it in a tarball, tha tarball preserves the permission, yes? Clicking on the tarball in kmail opens it in karchive, yes? And if the tarball is called niceboobies.tar.gz and the script inside it is called niceboobies.sh, then someone might run it, yes? I mean, most straight male geeks like boobies (although no true geek would fall for this). Just a thought. Yuri -- ** WARNING to mailing list repliers ** Gmail over-rides "Reply-To:" field.
