Possibly. They run NT as a supposedly "non-accessible" web server. Hell, one of "other faculty", notice no mention of whether the "other faculty" had any qualifications to deal with this other than breathing, could have logged into their PC and gone wandering through their Network Neighborhood to look at files on the server. They may have just happened onto the Temporary Internet Files on the server. We all know what happens next.
True sidenote: I had a manager frantic because he did just this, found someones Temporary Internet Files with pr0n in them. Was a bit abashed when I pointed out the truth to him.
A little late, but....
We get AOpen PCs from a local vendor. They come with an easy to remove keyboard, software/cables/moose package, sitting on a handled tray. But the best is the PC. It is has the baggied, form-fitting foam packaging, all secured by one of the biggest rubber bands I've ever seen. Now that's a creative LART!
We don't really have an accurate measure here. I know what the Love Bug cost ME, since I got to go and clean the little fucker off the dozen or so morons desks that opened it. During that whole time I got to listen to them bitch about how they had nothing to do. They weren't even able to catch the hint that they caused it themselves. Finally, we just told them that we could not have it fixed the same day, and told them to go home. After that we were able to finish the job quickly and easily.
From a pure production stand-point, we lost some $$ since we shut down the mail-swerver until we fixed it, but still, who knows? We lost a days worth of work for 12 people doing various production-related things, most of a day of my projects which have a direct impact on the entire company rather than a single dept., and we had no email for 6-8 hours which threw a kink into everyones communications. Hard to measure.
I did get some payback that day. Since we run an email-to-fax gateway, the 3-4 people who had a Contacts list full of fax addresses got to deal with a shit load of calls from irritated correspondants who were getting 10+ page faxes full of I Love You's code.
But it doesn't address the biggest problem I have observed here in Indianapolis. It's a very simple one:
The plow/salt trucks are put out on the road at the first prediction of snow accumulation. Once the snow starts, they are forbidden to allow the plow blade to drop with a foot of the surface of the road, and they are not allowed to drop salt. Once it starts snowing heavily, and piling up on the roads, the plows leave the roads, probably because it's dangerous.
The high-tech plows are neat, but in Indy we need the city and its drivers to learn how to push the snow off the roads, and to drop salt on the icy patches.
The FBI will be going after People Eating Tasty Animals next, even though that site was raped by Network Solutions years ago, and hasn't had an update since 1996.
But that's how Spider-Woman does it! Just gives 'em a squeeze, and the bad guys are trapped.

As others have pointed out, it's already registered, but "wiporeallysucks.com" isn't. Nor is "wipo-really-sucks.com", "guinessreallysucks.com", or "guiness-really-sucks.com." It's probably a safe bet that Wal-Mart, Lockheed-Martin, etc. haven't registered all the permutations of mixing their name and the word "sucks" in with various adjectives and/or body parts/other disgusting items. Hell, you can probably get "wiposucksthegoatsexman.com."
But their spelling seems to be improving. Seems like more than 50% of the words in the editorial blurb that accompanies stories are spelled properly now! (Except JonKatz. I filter that out, so I don't know for sure.)
Dateline Tampa, FL. - Sources close to the NFL, FBI and Tampa police state that upon review of the digital tapes of each attendee of the Superbowl, none exhibited any "suspicious" reaction to the Presidents accouncement. There were no "furtive glances" or "checking over the left shoulder" by the departing fans.
Police Chief Dan Glee Ballsak issued this statement concerning the event: "Yes, there were cameras there. But we emphatically deny that ANY tapes or recordings were made or currently exist. Which is a shame, as the resolution is good enough to apply J. Edgar Hoovers Phrenological Profile against the shapes of the attendees skulls to see if they will commit a crime someday. Now, if you'll excuse me, they're showing the flashing co-eds again."
Reporters were confused, but much reassured by his statement. "Digger" Smutch, a reporter for the Daily Dirt, made this statment, "That co-ed thing is kind of a weird thing to say, but anyone who can use 'emphatically' in a compound sentence must know his stuff."
Florida Democrats hailed the speech, admitting that Dubya, "Might be Okey-Dokey after all. After all we've done to abolish the 2nd Amendment, and freedom in general here in this country, the 1st Amendment didn't stand a chance. It is an encouraging sign that he recognizes the Unitaed States Governments divine mandate to rule, both in this country and abroad, in the material world and the spiritual world, and above all, regulate thought on the Internet"
The Democratic spokesman did let slip that fact that they do not know the number of fans cheering for New York during the game, but that they were, "Still counting," and hoped to have a hand-accurate count "Within 2 months."
This depends on detecting the characteristic magnetic flux from a rail gun shot at the time the shot is fired. a little dicey, but not that impractical.
Didn't you see Eraser? The projectiles leave big, green displacement marks in the air as they pass, similar to that seen as a conventional bullet passes through water. Should be pretty easy to see, as light is much faster than the projectile. No need to scan for the magnetic flux at all!
GROWING numbers of people in their twenties and thirties are suffering from severe memory loss because of increasing reliance on computer technology, according to new research.
That why I use CTRL+C, CTRL+V to remember the bits of articles and previous posts I am quoting when posting.
I was wondering how they fit three watch batteries into a robot that is only 0.0156 cubic inches (a quarter inch cubed), then I reread the article and realized the robots were 1/4 cubic inches in size.

A semi-auto M-16 is an AR-15. Journalistic bias strikes again. Although, with Kent States history, I can understand how people could be upset.
