in reply to On JavaScript, mt2k, and security risks

Just a small note. I don't know about anyone else, but mt2k's node does bounce me to the login page, but does not log me out...

    The only thing JavaScripty about the node is that it automatically submits a form.

    I could write my own form, with a hidden node_id field and a carefully prepared chatterbox message, and do the same thing. Without JavaScript, it's not even as malicious as assume all vroom's godly powers.
