    The Iranian hackers should first learn English. I was banging my head on the table reading that grammatically incorrect junk.

    The US and EU better let Iran develop a nuclear energy program or these senseless acts of web terrorism will never stop!

    People always try to blame the software right away but usually it's poor administration.

    Isn't this the same flaw Windows has?

    If a site running Windows Server 2003 was hacked, would it make the front page of /.?

    No, it wouldn't. People would get pissed about having to dig through 100000 stories of "Yet another cheesy Windows server hacked" until they found a real story.

    The OpenSuSE server has been sucking wind for weeks, and i know for a fact that trouble tickets have been submitted about it within Novell.

    Maybe they were just trying to lend a hand with the administration . . . .
