Howdy...

FYI - Not sure if you know but some of the source code for Windows 2000 was 
leaked to the internet last week and the first exploit from someone reading 
and reacting to the source code is now circulating. It's only attacking IE 
5.0 (not sure if it attacks 5.0 for the MAC).

Now most people here will have IE 5.0 on a test machine for site testing, 
but y'all have clients and friends that might be still on IE 5.0. Now there 
is additional motivation for them to upgrade to 5.5 or 6.0.
