There is nothing wrong with using an html file (appart from the fact that it needs a browser).
then again, if you really want an html file, use Hypertext Applications (HTA.)
no, you get me wrong... That is just the same. This is again a compiled "something" (although it is somewhat easy to decompile it) and with hta you can still do more (bad) stuff than with html.
I do NOT want to auto-start ANYTHING which can do stuff which I don't agree upon. And I want to know what is done (aka: I need to see the source first). period.
HTML can not do such stuff, hence my preference for that. And before you say "what about javascript etc", Javascript can't do anything malicious and VBScript is also not a problem as I will be warned when something is started which I didn't agree upon. Even then, I still could easly see the source of all that stuff. With
HTA, EXE, COM, whatever you can't...
I know I can disable the autorun (which I have), but that's beside the point. I still want to see what the autorun is suppose to do...
