There really are two worlds: the managed PCs that are part of the domain and completely locked down (including the laptops that can roam but only to connect to the company network via VPN), and the private unmanaged PCs that can only access applications via the internet, and these are either web apps (like webmail) or Citrix ICA. The ICA sessions do not map local resources, they are only screen/keyboard/mouse sessions. What do you do for business travel? We're stuck between total lock-down, and reliance on a combination of user vigilance and certificates. But the user is allowed enough freedom to access the open web...managed or not. Our users can use a locally available WiFi, as long as it is open (i.e. it can be WPA or WEP protected but it should passs UDP port 500 and 4500 and not use a captive portal). Or they can use a UMTS card/stick if they are really mobile. The browser is locked to use a proxy autoconfig script that it fetches from our server. This is where SM's usenet ability is a problem for us, IMO...and why Firefox is ok, but SM is not. Outlook can be locked down, but not so with SM...at least not as far as I can see. You can lock down SM with the lockPref techniques that I explained in another posting in this thread. Usenet can also be blocked because it requires a TCP connect from the browser to port 119 on a newsserver on the internet. Does not work at all here because we don't have routing between LAN and internet, not even NAT routing. But when you have, it should be possible to block TCP 119 with an access list entry. This can also be done on the PC itself. We're experimenting in limited areas with using iPads...I *REALLY* wish I could use an iPad on the job, but so far I think everyone is still scratching their heads as to how to secure both the device and corporate wifi. Define a separate network on the WiFi (SSID) that is open to the users and accesses a vlan that is NAT'ed to internet. The iPad users are on the internet just like they are at home. No risk to the company beyond the problem that they may abuse the company-registered IP to post libelous content etc. IT security should be unaffected. Any use for job-related acitivities would be via the portals that the company offers for external access. One time it has happened that an accountant came in with a trojaned laptop that was sending spam. He knew about it but could not get it fixed himself. Those people have long lists of requirements for IT security certification, but they have their laptops unprotected. We now have a different accountant. External (non-owned) devices are simply not allowed to connect in any manner, in our case. It was only a connect to the public internet, but it caused that single IP to be listed on the wellknown spam blocking lists. As there had been no escalation by the lists yet, our own servers had not been blocked. (they are in the same /27 subnet on internet) Yup. But no matter what you do, someone else will eventually out-do you. So your only real defense is to remain vigilant.

Embedded graphics
I get emails with embedded graphics. Some are sent directly to me and some have been forwarded many times. I have never been able to resend them and retain the graphics. If I just select forward, the compose window that is created has no graphics. If I select edit as new, compose still has the graphics, but the never reach the recipient. I have fiddled with a few settings but never changed the end result. Ideas?

If your default is plain text, simply forwarding will produce a plain-text message like this one, and graphics will be lost along with all other formatting. To forward as HTML, hold down the SHIFT key as you click the Forward button. This is parallel to the options SHIFT-Reply and SHIFT-Compose.

An odd SM crash
I leave SeaMonkey running, walk away from my PC. Come back some indeterminate number of hours later. Hit the CTRL key to wake up my displays. Screen comes up as expected. Move the mouse around the screen. As the mouse moves over the SM window(s) it wipes/erases the SM image. Right-click, choose Refresh, SM windows dissappear and all is well, Windows desktop and other programs just fine. SM has crashed but no crash report is produced. Run SM and it does ask if I want to re-load the last session or a new one. This started a couple months ago. My video card had died sorta, the fan self-destructed. I couldn't even find the pieces inside the case. Put in a new card and it's still happening. Well, this PC is circa October 2006, still, dual-core, 3GHz, tons of memory and disk space. It may just be age (mine or the PC or both) ... maybe I just relegate this to a server role and buy a new one.
