Now I suppose they'll want me to fix all the pages where I do a finger with a gopher://host:79/0user. Any chance this nonfix can be unfixed? This nonfix was applied to the UNIX and Win32 versions; I haven't checked the other platforms. -rich
From http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.01/relnotes/unix-2.01.html go to the security stuff and find:
* Relating to Ports:
2.01 fixes a problem where it was possible for a Gopher URL to be used to send commands to ports other than those that were reasonable for the Gopher service. It was possible that this feature could be used to exploit other security vulnerabilities behind firewalls. Navigator 2.01 fixes this problem by limiting the ports that a Gopher URL can access and by disallowing certain control characters in a valid Gopher URL.
