Vista Hackers Get Busy
An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft's long-awaited Windows Vista release Thursday for business customers will get more than just the passing attention of network administrators. That's because hackers will be eagerly waiting to do what hackers do best: start some mischief." Some folks on the Black Hat set got a sneak peek at Vista earlier this year, so they've had time to prepare.
Patch the holes rather than expoiting them. I know the whole chaos mentality but I can't see the difference between viruses and taking destructive advantantage of exploits and setting fires just because you can. Sorry I've been a victim of virus attacks and I'm very careful. Why not do something contructive with your skill and life? I was joking about patching the holes, although it'd be much appreciated, but why not put the energy into writing a challenging program? Destruction is for destructions sake. It's a sad thing when your goal in life is to make millions miserable. You aren't attacking Microsoft half as much as the users. It's an annoyance to Microsoft but it's often devastating to the end user.
Boy, you sure showed him, he must feel REALLY stupid now!
