PROFUSE PUBLIC APOLOGY...

All,
I want to publicly apologize for any misconstruance that my statements
regards LibBrowse may have caused. My statements were meant to
communicate that using a combination of various programs, including
LibBrowse, a very secure setup was indeed possible, with the ERRONEOUS
statement that the Security Button still held a serious hole.
If, as someone mentioned, I hadn't played around with the original
configuration, and left the critical "-start_java" in the properties line
of the shortcut, everyone would have been just happy.
I MESSED UP. I don't know when, but somehow the -start_java just "went
away"....
If you KEEP the "-start_java" in the properties, and the abusive patron
deletes EVERYTHING in the 'Security / Java/Javascript' dialog boxes, the
worst that will happen is that library staff have follow a 2-click
re-authorization process the next time the browser starts....
However, the point still stands, and THIS IS NO SLIGHT AGAINST LIBBROWSE,
that it would be NICE *SOMEHOW* to be able to remove the "SEARCH",
"GUIDE", and "SECURITY" buttons from the toolbar, as well as Bookmarks on
the location bar.
Again, this is NOT a "request" or anything else other than a "wish"... I
also "wish" that the license agreement for CCK was a little more
realistic, so that a government agency could legally agree to be bound by
it. I also wish money grew on trees... :-)
Once Last time, I apologize if anything I said was construed in any way to
be negative about LibBrowse. I think it is a solid product, and will
continue to use it, especially now that I got it right....
Oh, I also apologize if the list has been getting a lot of bounced
messages from me... Not only have I messed up my GUI, but I "upgraded" my
sun with memory and hard disk space, and in the process, trashed my
inbound mail.... ie, If you send me a response, it might bounce, I might
get it, or I might get it after the mail is solved (I'm re-directing all
the host's mail right now....).
Sincerely,
James Cayz
