As an afterthought to this, and having looked through the webserver logs
(as any security-conscious admin having posted a URL to a securityfocus
list should!)...

I award five security points to the visitor who used wget to fetch
download.shtml for inspection *before* opening it with a browser (links)
on his "-hardened-" linux system.

On the other hand, -5 security points from the people who generated the
9 hits (3 unique IPs) from hosts with useragent strings indicating
they're running on windows 98. (One of you is even using IE!)

In case anyone's actually interested in the paper, I'll try to remember
to quietly mention it when it's released!

 - James.
