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.

    are you fucking retarded? windows security on all versions previous to vista was criminal it was so bad (giving vista the benefit of the doubt here). security that allows malicous code to be run on your pc without you even installing it, is FAR from good enough. there's NO excuse for it being so bad, the desktop is not too big or complex for a company will BILLIONS in the bank to sort out. they can hire the top experts in the world to fix it for them. all your excuses are piss weak.
