Took a quick peek at dejanews, doesn't seem to be a real big deal. In fact
the author posted the code to the net, and someone decided it would be
fun to release it and see how many fool... I mean folks run binaries pulled
from the net as root.

Seems to me your system can get any real infection unless root infects it,
so it isn't a real big deal.

I will be more careful running net pulled stuff as root, everyone should
do the same.

I can just see col.advocacy now. Sigh....
