 ml> i saw a posting somewhere recently that all 
 ml> versions of netscape less than v4.74 when used with 
 ml> java (evidently not javascript?) have a security 
 ml> hole that allows someone to gain access to your 
 ml> system... nothing was said about which version of 
 ml> java nor was anything said about the platforms 
 ml> affected...

 ml> 1. has anyone else read/heard this?

 ml> 2. can anyone confirm/deny this WRT the OS/2 platform?

 ml> 3. is it related solely to the use of java with netscape?

             
         Sounds like the kind of B.S. story that MICROSOFT BILLY would start???
