Hi all,
Macro viruses made in
Word & Outlook cause such havoc as the
macros have direct access thru api calls available to them right!!!
It has been told that since
java executes in the JVM sand box its safe and
applets cannot tamper directly with the OS right
However with JNI and all its now possible to call hardware drivers and even
basic win32 apis n dlls directly from java.
Thats the use of JNI right??
So in which case isnt java applets just as dangerous as a VB macro maybe
even more dangerous!!!
Hope I am clear...
TIA
