Now with VBScript, ActiveX and a slew of other self executing protocols you do have to watch your back door. This is one of the big issues with unpatched versions of Windows and IE: an ActiveX control could create a "DSO Exploit", install itself on your computer, and then run itself. You never told it to run and you may not have been on any "nasty" site (I got got hit by one of these from a banner on Yahoo Mail), but you'll still get hit. --John
