[REBOL] Re: PNG => was Re: Re: Image processing and embedding metadata in images

From: media:quazart at: 13-Nov-2001 8:53

Why is it that the X-internet scares the hell out of me? this example: do %image.png... is REALLY COOL ! BUT ... What a wonderfull way for mallicious people to include nasty stuff... its completely hidden from normal users AND they see ".png" and tell themsleves ... oh its just an image... no worry... DOH... I mean, it would be easy to _replace_ a perfectly OK script in an image with a nasty one for any _in_competent programmer! If all kind of x-internet systems become commonplace, is it just me or isn't it MUCH easier for the computing industry to go haywire? -Max ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Cunliffe" <[jasonic--panix--com]> To: <[rebol-list--rebol--com]> Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 11:00 PM Subject: [REBOL] Re: PNG => was Re: Re: Image processing and embedding metadata in images?
