You really should step back on this one! I would be the first to cheer when
you point out some stupid design decision in Microsoft or Cisco or whatever
systems. But THERE IS NO VULNERABILITY in Monad!

You like analogies, so here's one. Suppose someone posted an article on how
they had PoC regarding a flaw in Windows Vista. Say you read the article
and it said that using the tools provided it was possible for an admin to
format the disk - regardless of the fact that important company information
was stored on the disk, and regardless of the supposedly secure file
permissions.

You would know that such a claim was just stupid. Well, that's what the
claim re Monad is - just stupid. It's nothing like ActiveX or Integrating
the Internet, or anything potentially troublesome. The claims re Monad are
just stupid.
