Hi
There seems to be serious security flaw in win95 dealing with novell
netware passwords. It's trivial to find netware password in win95
swap file by just scanning the hard disk for USERNAME (with some disk
editor) The only solution I have found is to disable virtual memory,
but this is not a SOLUTION, because lot of programs just do not work
without it...
btw. I'm talking about MS netware client (not aware if this flaw is
present in Novell client32)
