proj-imim: Brown Orifice Gummy Bear 2000-Aug-09 02:33:48

I guess there is a new virus going around called "Brown Orifice" 
that uses Java to infiltrate the end users computer.

I don't know much about it, but apparently it can run/delete files
on computers that use Netscape 4.7 and earlier.

Now the "experts" are suggesting that users disable Java
in Netscape in order to avoid this security hole.  :^(

Good grief!  Just what we need now...

Best,

Gummy
