If that list is out there (I dont know if it is or isnt) then there is no defering the blame, its been sold or given up and that is a shitty thing to do! Making excuses wont change that

Look, I don't particularly like matrix or NLB after him dropping the ball on our correspondence.
But the fact is, hacks happen. They can happen at the server level, they can happen at the client level (trojans, keylogs etc)
You for instance Johnny, might consider upgrading (or getting your admin to upgrade) your server
The % of peoples home computers and web servers vulnerable to hacks is pretty scary actually.
I just think its a little hippocritical to critisize people who've been hacked if your aren't in tune with your own security practices.
edit: took the specific vuln I saw on your box out as to not make it apparent to everyone reading. And of course that wasn't a threat or anything.. just trying to make a point here.
