Hi,

	Many of you must be knowing that there is a security bug in Netscape which
allows the web page to send an E-Mail (and address goes along with it)
without warning the user.

I haven't tested it out yet... but it seems to be present in only Netscape
3.0.

Could someone elaborate on this. I know how to do it... but I don't know
which all browsers are at risk.



...have a nice day.
---Royans
