I don't understand why slowly redhat is being badmouthed, slowly at first but there is an increasing amount of news pointing to redhat being not suitable for Linux users because now it is not completely 'free'. One by one articles are coming out pointing out the above and turning people away from RH. Now, instead of being critical some of the article to actually doing something about the things written, the author has done their part but others might follow suit!
Obviously you do not deal with real world where a cracker will create a tool to infect Linux and then spread to Windows or vice versa. Crackers are getting better every day, today's script kiddie might be an uberhax0r of tommorow.
The point is don't whine about such and such thing being better because there is less damage. Such reasoning will get us into another bind in a few years, instead lets get some answers make things better.
Have a look at this guys work at http://www.susserver.com/Software/SUSreporting/ w hile the tool is not perfect for checking logs at least it gives you an idea what is going on. Also, in the deployment guide/white paper they have all the control codes listed, i.e. it should be trivial to create a script that parses the logs and reports back to the user what exactly went on during the update process.
Well if you were around when the most of EST US was without power a little radio that used next to nothing in power would have been a must if the blackout lasted forever:)
What would you do if you wanted to share/sell a song you had to a buyer? You can't sell the song without giving up complete ownership of the song and the album. now if you were renting the songs you could turn it in for a credit and transfer that to X, who would own the song theoretically:)
I had two friends with similar symptoms, machine boots and after a minute or two a box pops up saying that a critical windows process stopped and the machine will reboot in 60 seconds, and it just keeps doing it, after they patched their system with microsoft fix rebooting stopped, I'm not sure what the payload was, so it may still come back as someone suggested on the thread
"Some advocates, however, say that while software piracy is illegal and morally offensive, the mere act of modifying hardware should not be illegal. "The most important dimension of this debate from our view is that
people should have the right to tinker with the stuff that they own," said Fred von Lohmann, senior staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil-liberties group in San Francisco."

Damn! It's expensive to acquire SPAM!
This could actually be true, since the spammers would like to get ahold of people who gave money to spend, and not some broke college kids.

.NET is great yet it's BIG so big that it's like a puzzle. You get in a hope to find a pathway and then repeat
