    Site is dead

    The website is dead. And if this can do what you say it can it is an open invitation to write virii for the Mac that work like Outlook on the PC. ????

    It's alive and...

    The website is very much alive. And if you read (or even think about the news story), it says that you have to name the script to run. Nobody I know has a script called "erase my HD".

    If you d/l you'll find it's got lots of built-in security: can change the command (not just "Albert"), make it only respond to mail from a particular address (which someone else won't be able to guess), etc.

    This company is producing some intriguing stuff. There's a real brain at work there. Partly you think "Why would you want to..?" but also "I bet that there's a really good use for that."
