Curing a Corporate Virus Infection
museumpeace writes "Over at Internet Storm Center Deb Hale's 'In search of the bot net' entry for September 25 recounts a grueling hunt for all the .exe's, reg entries and sources for a bot infection of a 60 server corporate network. What a nightmare! The story ends with an indictment of careless users and a suspicion that Ares, one of the sloppier Pirate2Pirate filesharing tools was the original souce of the extensive corruption that eventually even crippled the AV tools. How typical is this sort of grief? [More more frequent than reported, I would expect: the corporate victim demanded anonymity for the story to be told]."

Who convinced you that they were legislating *against* spam?
CAN-SPAM: It's not just a horrible backronym.

So should I be saying "FU!" to the people that steal the games I work on or should I be saying "FU!" to myself for being such a whore that I want to have a house for myself and my wife, food on our table, clothes in our closet, and money with which to enjoy our lives?
According to you I'm a horrible horrible person for not working my life away to let you have all the fun you want while I live in squalor. Gee, thanks. I don't understand how I completely misunderstood my place in life all these years! You, the one with no talents but a freely available file sharing program get everything while I, the educated, hard working person with a great idea and the means to produce it must be resigned to a life of crap.
Do you enjoy going through live being a complete and total self-centered, cheap ass bastard?
Yes and yes. If it's not too much to ask, could you make your games open-source and stop what you're doing?
