Okay, I'd like to set up a remailer - but I don't know where to start! Unfortunatly it's going to have to run on an NT 4.0 box, so the winsock remailer is out of the question, right? And I'm not in the US, so I can't use the juno stuff -- so what (if anything) *can* I use? Thanks for any help...

Watching the DOJ/MS fight is sort of like watching Iraq and Iran fight.
Or Iraq and Kuwait. I have a hard time working up much enthusiasm for
either side.
What finally knocked me onto {gasp, choke} Gates' side, was the following:

Dole Backing Effort to Slow Microsoft Plan
Washington - Former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole has been sending
letters and calling companies seeking their support in an expanding
campaign to curb Microsoft Corp.'s entrance into new Internet businesses.
Mr. Dole is part of a nascent but growing lobbying effort that goes far
beyond issues raised by the Justice Department's antitrust case against
Microsoft. ...
Mr. Dole is representing several companies, including Microsoft computer
rivals Netscape Communications Corp., and Sun Microsystems Corp., and
Sabre Group Holdings Inc., a Dallas-based airlines reservation system
that faces competition from Microsoft. ...
In a recent letter to one company that has been approached for support,
Mr. Dole wrote: "In the coming months, we will need to educate the
public, the administration, and Congress about the dangers of a
laissez-faire attitude toward Microsoft. I am personally convinced that
if nothing is done now, it will become increasingly difficult to have
fair competition in the years ahead. That is why we will need companies
like yours to help finance and support our efforts.
Mr. Dole, who was travelling in Bosnia yesterday with President Clinton,
couldn't be reached for comment. ...
Whenever both heads of the DemoPublican hydra agree, they're circling the
wagons to protect their "vital interests" against the barbarians. I'm
rooting for the barbarians, no matter how stinky they are.

We know, what monopolies lead to. In terms of security, this is a frightening thought. We all have seen security breaches by the software, be it Windows itself or the Internet explorer. AND we know how long it takes Microsoft to adapt to new standards. I'm quite confident that the guys at MS still think, that a 56-bit DES key is impossible to break ;-) I think, this matter deserves further investigation.
