oh boy  that means: "All your stacks are belong to us..." paranoia?

not that it cannot be done, but hey, if you type open stack url 
"http://www.mySweetVirii.net/theStack.rev" in your message box it will 
also be a problem... that is not something new with revOnline, if you 
going to execute anything on your computer, you'd better trust the 
origin of the source stack. I've never seen a destructive stack, but if 
some stupid script kiddie tries something like that, we'll just throw 
him out of revOnline.

The point is, it's not like Outlook where you can get viruses without 
executing them, were on revolution, stacks execute only if someone 
loads them... if you're afraid of that just don't run remote stacks.

cheers
