Remember he said over a WAN. That means NetBIOS over IP over the Internet or encapsulated
in a VPN or IPTunnel.

In addition:
If you post to UseNet with your TRUE, not a munged, email address then you have invited the
Swen Internet worm [aka; W32/Gibe-F] to visit you.

The Swen is news spelled backwards. The reason it is called this is because the Swen worm
harvests email addresses from UseNet News Groups. It has an engine that allows it to post
itself to UseNet News Groups as well as it has its own email engine. From the list of
email addresses that it has harvested, it will then email itself to those addresses.

| The copy command gives you more options, primarialy from
| the Dos prompt. You have more options as far as copying
| date sensitive files. Meaning that if you want to
| overwrite files having a cretain date you can do so. Also
| you can control the transfer of files by their attributes
| also. Check it out use xcopy /? to see all of the options.
| then check out ftp /? and see its options also. You will
| notice the difference.
