Description Salvatore Brigaglia 2009-03-03 20:03:30 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Today i found folderview asking me if i where sure about starting the command firefox.

This make me feel like i can't determine it by myself like they think users are in another OS...

this is to address the vulnerabilities of untrusted .desktop files.

-1 for making unnecessary allusions to Vista as if that's going to somehow add additional weight and heft to your bug.
Comment 2 Salvatore Brigaglia 2009-03-03 20:37:46 UTC 
It doesn't need any more weight, Aaron. This isn't gonna like to many users. Will see, maybe i'm wrong but i really hope thath the path to unnecessary warnings will not be taken. 

I know .desktop files can bring vulnerabilities but a little window asking if you are sure or not of what you just did isn't very powerful as a solution as people really quickly get used to click "YES" or "OK" without reading!

come up with an alternate solution.
