It is common for web sites to discriminate based on client IP addresses. If I know for instance that some organization serves documents on its site that are only available to its members, and know the site is con- figured to require no further authentication for requests that come from within a member's network, I can gain access to those documents simply by setting up an advertisement, which sooner or later would be shown to someone from within such a network, which then sends me the documents. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
