67116 2002-07-31 23:32:00 My anti scanner says I have XML somewhere in my directories. Have I been hacked? Is it as bad as Java?

I remember PC World saying XML would never happen, but it has here.

How do I remove it?

67117 2002-08-01 00:01:00 StarOffice 6.0 uses an XML-based file format as its default. Many, many industries are now using XML as a standard form of B2B communications.

Not sure what you are suggesting??

67118 2002-08-01 00:05:00 I already have Morphins for my B2B communications. Is XML spyware? Hope I won't have to reformat again. DeeDee (1290)
67119 2002-08-01 00:13:00 B2B=Business to Business, not to be confused with P2P=Peer to Peer.

B2B is where large companies exchange data in a self describing format. I hardly think huge corporations would spend $10,000,000 (yes, $10 million) on these platforms just to allow spyware to roam....

It has also migrated to inter-office and small office/home use (as mentioned with the Star Office suite).

XML is a format, an advance on HTML I guess, but if you are worried then you wont read this forum, like the rest of the web its HTML....

67120 2002-08-01 00:17:00 So you must use XML programme to be in PressF1? Or is it the Star Office for business to business instead?

I do not know HTML.

67121 2002-08-01 02:21:00 OK, it has been worked out. No need to reformat, just delete Press F1 XML cookies. DeeDee (1290)
67122 2002-08-01 02:54:00 XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language. It is a way of describing data by placing tags in a document/file.
e.g. <name>DeeDee</name>

To understand XML data, a DTD (Document Type Definition) is required. All these done at the backend -- as a user you don't need to worry what's going on behind the scenes. If you like to read the technical definition you can visit this link : www.w3c.org

To use pressf1, all you need is a browser.

... shame really, he ruins it for other genuine posters seeking helpful advice.

.. if I'm wrong, sorry, but I'm very suspicious!
