It is a special case of the advice that says use only programs or diskettes that you expect from trusted sources. This is a special case of the advice that says do not open mail that has no return address, is not expected, or is otherwise suspicious. In a small number of cases it may be very dangerous to do so. ____________________________________________________________________ William Hugh Murray 216-861-5000 Fellow, 203-966-4769 Information System Security 203-964-7348 (CELLULAR) ARPA: WHMurray@DOCKMASTER Ernst & Young MCI-Mail: 315-8580 2000 National City Center TELEX: 6503158580 Cleveland, Ohio 44114 FAX: 203-966-8612 Compu-Serve: 75126,1722 INET: WH.MURRAY/EWINET.USA 21 Locust Avenue, Suite 2D DASnet: [DCM1WM]WMURRAY New Canaan, Connecticut 06840 PRODIGY: DXBM57A - --------------------------------------------------------------------
