Ken,

I am embarrassingly naive about these issues. when you say "responsible 
security concern" What do you mean? How is this any different security 
wise, than distribution of the Supercard Player  (which we knew and 
loved) of the past? If  my SC project wanted to read and write file and 
"do stuff" with that player, nothing was there to stop it. Is it just 
the auto boot from a web page we are concerned about?
