Has someone stolen your ID again? tic swayback | 01/28/04

For the record, if I am wrong I will admit it here. No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/28/04

Get ready to admit it tic swayback | 01/28/04

Spammers targeted SCO? I doubt that. No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/28/04

Missing the point again tic swayback | 01/29/04

Useless r0ckflite | 01/28/04

even more useless pschroeder@... | 01/28/04

The virus came from Russia, look it up! B.O.F.H. | 01/28/04

give credit to GROKLAW pschroeder@... | 01/28/04

Re: I doubt it cbradshaw@... | 01/29/04

A bit of possibly useful information. Yen_z | 01/28/04

It's the same on XP systems too doctormoriarty | 01/28/04

Einey, meiney, mighney, moe.... Xunil_Sierutuf | 01/28/04

Oops! Another hole! IT_User | 01/28/04

Yep. Ironic. Yen_z | 01/28/04

Here's a thought on executable attachments billywill | 01/28/04

Users doe_z | 01/28/04

certificates are not enough, deleting exe not great hipparchus | 01/28/04

STOP ALREADY pschroeder@... | 01/28/04

It installed its own SMTP server hipparchus | 01/28/04

Raw socket access pschroeder@... | 01/28/04

but default of off is probably more secure hipparchus | 01/28/04

Raw Sockets JohnW_z | 01/29/04

Good idea pschroeder@... | 01/29/04

YOU dont UNDERSTAND Valis Keogh | 01/29/04

| 01/28/04

But this one does IT_User | 01/28/04

Your link can't be followed! Jose Jimenez | 01/28/04

Old info and missed a step Xunil_Sierutuf | 01/28/04

Try this Jose Jimenez | 01/28/04

The problem lies... doe_z | 01/28/04

Linux boxes are far stronger hipparchus | 01/28/04

apology in advance for repeating untruth about lindows hipparchus | 01/28/04

XP Security jfrankcarr | 01/28/04

heavily locked down system generating support calls hipparchus | 01/28/04

Macs are boutique machines jfrankcarr | 01/28/04

it would be rather difficult, and you would mean it! wrench_ninja | 01/28/04

never underestimate a determined user pschroeder@... | 01/28/04

nigeria Valis Keogh | 01/29/04

+Wine doesent run as root (nt) nite_w0lf | 01/28/04
