I'am sorry if my explanation is completely
illogical...but this is what I figured out ........pls
inform me if my notion is completely wrong.....
In a system like Windoze
---->DLL--->EXE (RAM)---->Compiled but no check for
size of compiled output.
In GNU/Linux OS
---->object/.so----->binary/daemon(RAM)---->Compiled
and checked for size of compiled
o/p.
And as for shell scripts, and rpm's which we blindly
execute sometimes........pls do a md5 verification to
check for trusted signatures........
So it's 98% safe to open mails on a linux system than
any other system........these days a lots of
executable stuff on the prowl.....
bothered abt bugs in the system......well the
community is so alert that you'll definitely know abt
it before the hacker knows it.........
hope this leads us somewhere,
