Hi,
How secure is the load command in Rev standalone applications?
When I use "load URL myURL," is it possible ever to download a harmful executable application that could some how escape or run from or within the cache? I'm not considering that the file being downloaded would be a stack. In other words it should only be a text file or an MTML file. But what would happen if a user created a link to a stack file that would then save itself or do something else? Would that stack file somehow run or start on its own while in the cache? Something like that could be used to destroy global vars in the simplest form of malicious activity.
I guess what I'm saying is that a simple browser created with Revolution would have no Java, active-X, or java script capabilities that could even remotely be considered equivalent to the security holes found each week in Internet Explorer.
I believe the secureMode property addresses those issues.
