Colleagues --

The following article was posted in today's Wired.com:

<http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,57897,00.html>

The article reports that vulnerable FMPro databases can be
found using Google and a search string of:

        "Select a database to view:"

Google.com searches do confirm several hits for various .EDUs..

Please review your sites to ensure that no confidential/private
information is at risk.

For more information on FMPro security, please see:

Hope this helps,

~cam.
