The open-source BinkD project, which developed the specifications Internet Rex
was written around and which are "the" standard... puts out fixes and
improvements on a regular basis while Internet rex was written against an old
spec and is bug-ridden abandonware that will never be updated. Yet its author
still charges for licensing.

You like bringing up not using an outdated OS on the Internet but have no
problem with an Internet-specific application with bugs that cannot and 
will not be fixed. If its discovered that Internet Rex can be exploited ie. 
a buffer-overrun and download any file on the host, what then professor?
