CUSTOMER: So… this new Firefox add-on…
ALEX: “NoClick.”
CUSTOMER: “NoClick?”
ALEX: That’s what it’s called. It’s a DOT NIT application that allows you to install software over the Internet without actually clicking on anything.
CUSTOMER: How?
ALEX: You embed a marker for the fie in your web page, and when Firefox loads the page the DOT NIT environment allows the file to be automatically installed on your PC.
CUSTOMER: How do you prevent people from using that technology to automatically install malware and viruses?
ALEX: It’s not our fault Mozilla can’t design a secure browser.
