+// -=- WMShatter.h
+//
+// WMShatter provides the IsSafeWM routine, which returns true iff the
+// supplied window message is safe to pass to DispatchMessage, or to
+// process in the window procedure.
+//
+// This is only required, of course, to avoid so-called "shatter" attacks
+// to be made against the VNC server, which take advantage of the noddy
+// design of the Win32 window messaging system.
+//
+// The API here is designed to hopefully be future proof, so that if they
+// ever come up with a proper way to determine whether a message is safe
+// or not then it can just be reimplemented here...
