Quite appart from the fact that someone logged in as root is far more likely
to be 'persuaded' (unwittingly, maybe) to do something useful for an attacker
than someone who isn't :-) USE ROOT WITH CAUTION methinks. Save the fun stuff
for the relative isolation of you bedroom! :-)
(we all have Unix boxes in our bedrooms don't we?) :-)
