Thanks Madhat.  I knew I had people I could rely on.  The Explore2fs is
exactly what I was looking for.  I believe the way it could create the
security breach is to allow someone to access the windows partition when
active, and allow them to gain access to the Linux partitions.  My latest
discovery is that Eplore2fs does not grok reiserfs partitions, so the security
hole is not a whole hole.
