Just one suggestion to place here a list of "secure" programs to run instead of these. IMHO it'll be more useful than just saying not to use. CB> 1) Microsoft Outlook & Outlook Express (IMHO this along with ActiveX should be changed to IE engine) use The Bat! instead CB> 2) Telnet - when used for remote control SSH CB> 3) Sendmail Qmail & Postfix CB> 4) IIS Server Apache CB> 5) Wireless networking - Unless used with extreme paranoia nothing CB> 6) PHP - It seems to make it easy to write insecure code. nothing or Perl or maybe other ones? CB> 7) R services (rsh, rcp, rlogin) SSH CB> 8) ActiveX - mostly because of what it's used for not the actual protocol. may use or may not by the choice CB> 9) BIND DJBDNS TinyDNS -- Best regards, Martchukov Anton aka VH mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evaluating SSL VPNs' Consider NEOTERIS, chosen as leader by top analysts!
