Because it makes it easier for the good guys to be good. Misinformation is BAD. It's won't prevent bad guys from hacking you, and it WILL prevent the good guys from helping you (eg to say "oh yes you're using known buggy version X - this problem is fixed in Y"). And it generally makes it hard for people to cooperate with each other. -- Cameron Simpson, DoD#743 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.zip.com.au/~cs/ Tis better to have test ridden and lost, than to never have test ridden at all.
