The problem could/should be solved by using a sandbox arrangement
anything to do with the internet should be run in a sandbox so it cannot
alter any part of the users computer.
that is to say not only email but any other software that has the potential
to run downloaded apps or scripts
e.g. IM's P2P Browsers etc.
I have often wondered how hard it would be to make a sandbox.
does anyone know of any open source sandboxes?
User Mode Linux is about as strong as you'll get. The BSD's jail system, a
more advanced chroot, is also very good.
