Should Microsoft Be Responsible For This Attack?
 

I mean its about fuckin time, someone needs to pay for the money loss!

i smell a class action suit...Smut Peddlers vs. M$

No. Everyone already knows MS crap is full of security vulnerabilities.

The people who still elect to use MS servers should be shot.

It's funny that freely distrubuted code like linux and unix OS's are better secured than ones that you pay for!

I understand that the vulnerability was public. If there was a patch available, then Microsoft is not liable. I think this says a lot, once again, about the security of MS products. I think it is time for IS people to open their eyes, and stop being lazy. I don't care if you are more familiar with MS products, they are bad for business. A huge chunk of the internet went down last night... That's nuts.

OK OK OK

nah, but this does blow mega chunks

I just cant belive this is happening

nope sorry man..cut your losses and set up an Asian massage parlor :)

considering that

why would anyone run a porn company on a MS server?

I would say YES and NO. I mean the update of this problem was already released in July 2002....

But of course MS should try to make their software 100% okay the first time

Apparently, there is a fix available already.

Well actually all good admins that stay on top of their shit were not affected at all.
