Surely you jest

I once posted that Linux users' arrogance regarding security was going to be their downfall. I quickly received dozens of responses indicating all the good reasons why Linux has no security holes, needs no anti-virus, etc., etc.

Perhaps you should read some of these talkbacks, then, perhaps, you wouldn't have made your post.

BTW, I am NOT suggesting that this server was running Linux. I have no idea which OS was installed, nor do I care. The whole point is that every man-made thing on the face of the earth has vulnerabilities. No OS is immune to them.
