I hope you're right BUT the US government and a lot of companies are starting to
really worry about security from "terrorists" and are looking for some way to
secure their systems. Let's hope they don't blindly jump on the M$ Palladium
bandwagon. IMO "foreign terrorists" are the least of our securtiy problems,
SPAMMERs, Script kiddies, and the people that develope and use trojan SW, spyware, etc are
a lot bigger threat than some rumored foreign terrorists.
