    Null Character Evasions.

    Black Ice has been showing this message a lot in the last few days. In fact I don't think I saw it ever until one or two weeks ago.
    Can anyone explain to me how this Null Character lurk operates? I'm more curious thatn worried, although the Black Ice information page wasn't exactly comforting. It targets IE users because IE ignores Null characters - I use Firefox most of the time anyway, so I'm relieved on that score. But this bug seems capable of infiltrating any system, and at this point there's no known remedy. Any information that the average technotard like myself can follow would be appreciated.

    Ok, im totally confused, are yuo having trouble with a Null character, or Black Ice. A null character is a character with the value being zero. A Null character looks like ^ except more digitized. This is information that i have compiled from Wikipedia. Although it didn't tell me much, but so far i'm still confused by what you're saying.

    I'm not actually having trouble, I just noticed that this was coming up as a message when it hadn't been before. The Black Ice is catching it, and so long as I stick with Firefox I'm probably safe.
    It was the term 'Null Character' which sparked my curiosity. Got to admit, jakeyeager, I didn't think of looking on Wikpedia. Thanks for your reply.
