Xiao,

"This could be a costly mistake for the writer. The FBI is looking to prosecute the writer with a fine of $350,000 and five to 10 years, according to statements made by Michael Vatis, director of the National Infrastructure Protection Center."

If the punishment is based on the damage caused then the writer of SmartDrive for Windows 3.1 must have got the chair!

Cheers,

Norm

Take a look and see how a few added lines of code would
transmit 50 of your personal documents instead of a list
of porn sites. Also a line or two to erase files or destroy
your registry. Do you really think Microsoft is not at fault
for enabling this kind of unsafe computing?
