That's one reason why malware and botnets are so successful, yes. And I 
think a strong sign that something is wrong in how most software works 
today, and that we need to change something. Mozilla is trying to find 
ways for that, others should as well. Nobody is saying that our way of 
trying it is the best, but we don't have better ideas right now so we 
are trying with what the pretty intelligent minds in our community have 
come up with.
