Technical details of the potential bug have not been disclosed to Netscape or the general public by the Internet Consultant from Denmark.
As of a few hours ago, Netscape found the bug. They say they will release fixed versions of Communicator for Windows next week. The Unix and Mac versions, when released will include the fixes, and they'll fix Navigator after Communicator. see <URL:http://www.news.com/News/Item/0,4,11487,00.html> No info on details of the bug or exploits that I can find. -- Manoj Kasichainula - manojk at io dot com - http://www.io.com/~manojk/ "And the moral of today's story is: Lather, Rinse, Repeat." - Yakko Warner
