You can have this checked without the warning coming up (which needs js enabled), by going to Develop menu, turning on things and then turning them off. Next time you quit and restart Safari, no warning. -- dorayme

Kitsap Transit is a pretty low budget operation. One of the ferry services they operate (and in fact one of the services they operate that I have ridden) is with a boat that was built in 1917 simply because there isn't the money to replace it with something a bit more modern. So, they probably don't have the money for the best of the Seattle area's web site security people. -- Please note this e-mail address is a pit of spam due to e-mail address harvesters on Usenet.

Kitsap Transit is a pretty I hope you'll let us know what develops. It really is odd - either someone at the hosting company put it there, or somewhere there's lax security which allowed the files at their webhost to be modified. Should be interesting to find out the story. -- Plain Bread alone for e-mail, thanks. The rest gets trashed.

I had a similar hacking on one of my GoDaddy hosted websites. Obfuscated Javascript was added which re-routed viewers to a website in Russia showing off pictures of "my new baby" It looked like that website had also been hacked for malicious purposes, but since all the text was in English, I think it may have been a decoy. -- Wes Groleau Race Doesn?t Matter http://Ideas.Lang-Learn.us/WWW?itemid=876
