Well, I've read the responses so far, and what I get is this:  graphical
Web browsers run by downloading an applet, so if a Lawrence Livermore
Lab employee was running a graphical browser, they could indeed, while
doing something totally innocent (they thought) import a trojan horse.
Yet, according to another response, an employee there ought to KNOW of
that danger and avoid doing it  ( yet if the browser is set up that
way, there IS no way to avoid except don't EVER get on WWW).  Third,
by requesting the transfer of an executeable (or compressed file), the
employee could do it, AGAIN knowing of the risk factor.

Our manager wants to go ahead with WWW presence, but is concerned that
we could get infected.  But, then, that wo uld seem to require that
employees would be browsing the web, hardly the kind of thing we are
getting connected for.  Of course, we don't want citizens logging on
and getting anything from us (bad PR), but how wo uld the above
conditions permit US to get infected.

I feel like there is some progress in this, but  less than a definitive
answer.
