A new IDC report states that internet traffic will nearly double annually until 2007. They even use /.'s favorite unit of capacity/storage, the LOC. They predict that internet traffic will be 64,000 LOC/day! Wow, 64000 LOC, that sure sounds impressive!!"

    GET /scripts/../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c+dir HTTP/1.0

    over and over and over... guys, there is no command.com on my system. Give it a rest!
