I am always amazed that people think shutting off a security something-or-other for some-amount-of-time can be considered safe. It takes virtually the blink of an eye to get compromised. If you need to turn off a security feature to do something, then there's something wrong with that /thing/ that required it. It could simply be crap programming, or it could be malicious. And even crap programming can be destructive outside of its own files. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.19.8-100.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Tue May 12 17:42:35 UTC 2015 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
