..yes.  Just strip off the bloaty html, this is a mail list, not a 
scriptkiddie crack-a-box contest.  Those of you still running wintendo
remains vulnerable to Javascript, Active-X and Visual Basic embedded 
in html-formatted email and in web pages.   Plain text email _without_
binary attachments, is the safe way to go.

..this can, and _should_ be automated.  Email me, if you want me to do
it.  All it takes is a linux box, and it can host the lists and web
sites and still run in circles around your wintendos.

..and, do seal off those wintendo ports (137-139 and 98).  
Yeah, I know what I'm talking about.  ;-)
