Netscape 2.02 and security

[HOL Lin Light]

I have replied to another user, but I thought maybe to all may be helpful.
I have 4 public PCs for Internet access, they are connect to my 3COM Hub 
which in turn has a direct bridge connection to a Freenet system housed 
within the library.  I have not allowed any downloading because one of 
the options was my f:drive [fileserver].  With some help I found that by 
deleting two lines from my Autoexec.bat connection to my fileserver would 
not be made, but yet connection to the NET was.  I deleted the lines for 
loading the IPXODI and NETX.

Go in peace to love and serve the world.
