Or just send binaries as email. Actually, what's to stop this right now? Just send a .desktop and a binary and have the shell string that the .desktop runs include a chmod. For that matter, forget the binary. Just send them a .desktop that does rm -rf $HOME or have it download a binary using ftp or scp or some such (based on the distro and architecture even) and run it. Unles, do .desktop files have to be executable to be used? If not, perhaps this would make for a more secure system. (I know that this would break current setups. I haven't thought of a solution to that.) Thanks, Chris _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
