Re: Witango-Talk: MS Security patch preventing postargs from being submitted

[Alan Wolfe]

spyware/addware can cause this to happen.  Also some versions of browsers that are buggy can cause this to happen (IE for mac is a big offender here), but if this is the case what weve experienced is it wont be missing all args, just some of them.   Anyways, I'm not sure if this helps but theres some _javascript_ at this page that you can use to scan IE for PC for spyware, you could make use it to post a warning saying "warning spyware has been detected on your computer and may cause web pages not to behave normaly".   heres the url: http://www.doxdesk.com/software/js/parasite.html   ----- Original Message ----- From: Roland Dumas To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 05, 2004 2:26 PM Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: MS Security patch preventing postargs from being submitted This problem is increasing in frequency. Secure forms are being stripped of postargs. This is one of two meltdown problems now. Hasn't anyone else seen it?

The next MS Security patch for instance? the report is: Breaks it: MS04-004 Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (832894)   Fixes it: Microsoft KB831167 The bigger question, if this is true, is what is witango doing that other app servers isn't doing? ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf
