The problem is, in cases like this, incorrect, or misleading information can
actually do more harm than good. It's like the whole "Just disable
auto-opening of files in Safari and you're safe". Well, you can do that, and
it helps, but that doesn't make you safe. "Just use Mozilla and you're
safe." That's incorrect too.

I really to thank Sander for his web page on it, because it is correct info.

It's not that your attempt is wrong, it's that you unintentionally are
getting the wrong message out. That's the problem.
