[freenet-support] IE6/XP SP2 may no longer treat text/plain as ambiguous?
Somebody with XP SP2 and IE6, please visit the below site, and tell me if it redirects you to fbi.gov: CHK at qhg6NvKnWfG~mKm1akieQfc70pqWXvlyqyBsOnyUZr0,F65SIZDVMBjP9U1Rm1qXK~9Yb8nITW9NO3GdJw3orR8,AAEC--8/ Thanks. [1] below suggests that it may not. If so, we can drop the warning about IE not honouring MIME types (for HTML) ... unfortunately, there is RSS to worry about instead! So please check that too: Visit the current edition of freenetwatch: USK at jotJldLVFPDEnvRqfhBWsnXPQpOS~QrawxFjgsLZcFQ,xnNqE4Z~zMHmIUmqrA0oziUFSXNOAC7OhOOH4yhcBq4,AQABAAE/freenetwatch/38/ Click on the RSS feed. If you have a recent version of Freenet, this will produce a warning page. Click on "open the file as plain text"; does it open the RSS feed as RSS, or does it show it as text? Same with "force your browser to save it to disk" and "open the file as RSS" please.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7 build 1005 including FF2 security fix
Freenet 0.7 build 1005 is now available. Please upgrade. This build fixes a potential security issue with Firefox 2.0 (also IE 7, but that has other problems). Firefox will display as RSS anything which from the first 512 bytes looks like RSS; therefore an attacker can bypass the HTML filter using an RSS file with inline images inserted with a MIME type of plain text. There is also a new per-peer option, "ignore source port", which you should set (from the darknet page, in advanced mode), if you are having trouble connecting to a peer behind a corporate NAT. Finally there are some changes to the node-to-node text messaging system, which hopefully will make it easier to track down a long-running but rare bug, and there are some minor improvements to the web interface. Upgrade! -- next part -- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
