Honestly I don't know. I'd guess that the most efficient way to set up a dos attack on a wintel box is to use it to telnet to a decent platform and do the attack from there.
I don't know, and chances are very few people know, but does the backdoor "phone home" to say it's ready and waiting?
And don't underestimate solitaire. It's globally acknowledged as one of the most efficient productivity killers around.
Looks like the DOS attack was just dragged in for publicity's sake: "Once opened, the file infiltrates the computer, turns it into a "zombie" machine controlled by hackers. It can then be used to launch a denial-of-service assault."
Yes of course. But then, it can also be used to launch solitaire. Sounds pretty upsetting to me.
Would you believe it? A quick past from the Suse review:
SuSE is more difficult to install than Red Hat, but its phone support option makes it a viable choice for businesses looking to use Linux, especially since it costs $20 less than Red Hat's.
The mind boggles. Is this review aimed to inform businesses about Linux as an alternative to, say, NT or Solaris? Who are you kidding? I honestly don't know what to make of this.
As far as I remember this is the fourth declension. So that would make the nominative plural virus.
But maybe such a thing is too hard to grasp elsewhere in the world, so we end up with inventions like viri, virii, vira, viruses. (At least that one seems straightforward so we might as well stick with it.) Have not seen virae yet, but that is only a matter of time.
Networks Solutions? I've dealt with them in a technical support capacity: About the most clueless lusers and badly trained monkeys I've seen in quite some time. I could go into detail but that might make me traceable. Let me just say it helps if the monkey you're dealing with knows which OS he's running. Don't want to deal with them again.
I have. There's a Tintin story where it pops up. I forgot the title, but it's the one where Tintin meets captain Haddock and they find a shipwreck without (read the book) the treasure.
Looks pretty immature to me. Funny thing is that most of them are displayed with e-maiil address and all. It seems the writers have little experience with the fact that e-mail, especially a strongly worded one, can just go off and start living a life of its own. And then all over sudden things look a lot different. For instance, would you do business with Pekka.Honkonen@tieto.com at www.tietotech.fi?
Yup! That's it. The mail was sent to the address I userd for registering for that. And that's a different one from the one I used for registering at slashdot.
Doubtful. This was the first time I ever, ever, commented to anything on slashdot, and if you click on "user info" you'll find it pretty uninformative. Or are you referring to something I haven't thought of?

Pah.

Sounds great. Hey! I'm in Chechnyia! Thanks for the website! It really helps.
Could you yankees go fix your yankee problems at home please?
I'm against violence Here. And here is where I'm sitting, and here is where you, the reader, are sitting. So look around you and do something.

Anyone else who had latin in school?

Well, I guess we found it.
I'll just leave it to the bloodthirsty herd to deal with it.
Good luck at crowd control.
Yup! That's it.

Thanks for solving this riddle.
Doubtful. This was the first time I ever, ever, commented to anything on slashdot, and if you click on "user info" you'll find it pretty uninformative.

This was too obviously not originating from slashdot, but how did this guy lay his hands on the addresses?
