Hi chacmool,
It's a quick fix rather than a solution. Try using Hotmail, for example, with no Java script enabled....

I'll wait for the security hole to be patched.

The good thing is that it took them THIS LONG to find a hole in NS. Can't say the same for IE.........can you??


Yours

The bad news is that NS knows about the flaws and will not release them to the public because IE is pulling too far ahead of them. They wait for someone else to find them and bring them to the publics attention.
