Hi, It's not a problem. I might a tone that I'm annoyed or confused with some of the content of some of the contributions, or think it's utterly ludicrous (I don't recall yours anyway, so don't assume I mean any of that about your response), but I'm not upset and certainly not offended. The worst thing that could happen, is I think someone's being foolish or doesn't know what they are talking about (again, that doesn't man I'm talking about you or any specific person either when I say this), but that certainly doesn't offend me... it doesn't affect me even. :-) This discussion has turned into a debate and I'm not sure how it came from programs to scripts using an interpreted language qualifying a language as a program and that program being insecure or not based on insecure code that has no relation to the program (though some have), let alone a protocol or misused service. Oh bother... now look what we've all done.. :-) -- Regards, Tim Greer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Server administration, security, programming, consulting.
