FTP, UUCP, and Usenet (albeit inefficiently)

In early 1995, WWW traffic passed ftp-data in regards to both packet
count and byte count.

I suppose sometime soon, if we have not passed it already, Windows
worm/virus-bearing attachments will be #1 thanks in part to unquestioned
use of attachments and abandonment of networked file systems...

Anyway, the original message was about trojans for systems running GNOME
or KDE and an open question about how to mitigate them.
