Regarding the 'opener' malware script
Authored by: legacyb4 on Nov 01, '04 10:29:45AM

For what it's worth, I run my account as a regular user but have modified the /etc/sudoers file to allow me to 'sudo' when working in Terminal.

This prevents any GUI-based intentional or accidental actions (dragging stuff in/out of folders where they shouldn't be going, etc.), forces the authentication dialog box to appear when doing any GUI-based apps, but allows me enough freedom on the command line to do what I need.
