What's the deal with NoScript? I know very little about how browsers
work maybe this is the "backdoor" to LUA. Active-X, Javascript, Java,
EVEN if they are allowed to execute malicious code my theory on not
being able to install as auto-executable still holds. Unless they
don't need access to the registry or Program Folder and somehow put
themselves in the Data folder. Hummm....... Can somebody shed some
