I've responded to the person posting this message, requesting that
they refrain from further postings to the MAGNet list unless they are
directly pertinent to campus Macintosh support.
(The issue described in this posting is specific to the Microsoft
Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x Web browsers running under Microsoft
Windows. I am not currently aware of any campus incidents involving
this issue ...)
