Hey, it takes a while to get past the ugly exterior of the Mac's for a guy like that to actually BUY one.

Speaking as a network administrator who's been dealing with Panther networking bugs all morning, it's worth noting that there's currently a flaw in Panther that permits any authenticated user to gain write access to any AFP share in the same realm. You could probably do quite a bit with that, if you wanted. Posts: 37449 | Registered: May 1999

True, true.... but Apple has an excellent track record for fixing such things quickly and thoroughly.
And being able to fiddle with your officemate's pictures folder is a far cry from crippling a large percentage of computers in the U.S. When you're talking users in the same subnet, you're usually talking physical access, anyhow, and a ball-peen hammer would have a much more devastating impact.
Still, I'm sorry Panther is causing trouble for you. I've held off on updating until I really need to. Why fix what ain't broke?

Hey hey, I scored a 13! It took me until question 43 to even have a positive score. It would have been even lower except we have some stuff like a wireless connection at home that I had nothing to do with. Yikes.

Another gripe: one of the questions asked where you check your personal email, but only allowed you to pick one place.
