By the same reasons, one could argue that any system that has buffer overflow errors is horribly written, or any software that has bogs is decadent software. The reality is that such errors/mistakes/vulnerabilities will potentially be part of any system until they are discovered. It's just that you can't fix what you don't know is broken. -- CWStrommer - New equipment FuBARing daily! __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
