Some people are too stoopid to use the Internet. They tend to also be the sort of people who don't read manuals, so RTFM is all too appropriate. I'm not sure what MCSE is good for except cash for MS and maybe resume padding in an NT shop. If i had one, I certainly wouldn't admit it.
You are already publically publishing that information.
Not in bulk. A zone transfer is the first step in a network scan; once you get all the hosts and their IPs, you can feed it to nmap to check for vulnerabilities. Good if you're targetting a specific network.
By posting to usenet. Ask a sysadmin sometime about getting Spam at addresses that have been dormant for years.

spammers aren't being censored by ORBS. They can use the mail server of their ISP (and then get slapped down by that ISP). The only reason to use a third party mail server for delivery is forgery.
Spam blocking using ORBS is typically done by the ISP for its entire site. There is no choice except moving to another ISP. Personally, I like the idea of blacklisting open relays.
What about that recent COTS case where there were "death threats" using a "Tom Cruise Missile"?
There were no death threats. What happened was that CoS was allowed to take a few quotes from a usenet thread (which wasn't in the least serious) and their scripture ("Destroy them utterly") out of context and pretend to be a persecuted little church.
Sure you're not thinking of Trademarks? Anyway, what the hell can you do about it? Tweak all your content every time MS or someone else decides they want to enhance your stuff?
Can I insist that if the NY paper has an LA edition my article not appear there because I have signed an exclusive contract with a different paper in that city?
Sure can. They don't have to buy the article, though.
Asking people to pay for things they already have the right to use is anti-consumer. For instance, suppose that Virgin records decided that you needed a copy of their CD for each player you play it on.

I have little trouble believing that a country that runs its students down with tanks skins convicts alive.
When you can only get someone's source and build scripts in a 650MB CD image, it seems to me they're not paying attention.
Of course, i could get the iso, then unbundle it and distribute it myself.
the spider crawl won't hit the shell servers that someone forgot to secure.
Nope, bartering is not tax evasion. Of course, IANATA (Tax Accountant)
Any unknown packet is a bad packet, and it's just there to do something evil, and unimaginably bad.
I like that attitude. Of course, I make a point of finding out what packets are what. Anything i don't like gets ignored.

A zone transfer *is* something to hide.

I thought Squaresoft was based in Hawaii.
now imagine a domain contact with a hotmail address. Now imagine hotmail's domain contact being a hotmail address.
Hey Raging Idjit, are you following up to yourself just to call attention to your idiocy? ROFL

if someone made a mass mailing detailing human rights abuses in China, would you consider it spam?
Yeah, it'd be spam. Spam is defined by volume and its shotgun approach, not content.
Why do Spammers have the right to fill my inbox with shit? At least my Postal mail doesn't come postage due.

Karma to burn, right?
The user would still have to click 'Ok' to accept the download of the ActiveX DLL to enable the new tag
So I could use that other Microsoft signature that's floating around to sign my porn SMRT tag. Problem solved, right?

Last i heard, MS got about $24 Billion/year with about 8 coming from Office.
nah. When you sell an article, there's actually a chance to negotiate. Also, you're selling the article individually to each paper.
It just smells funny (Apologies to Frank Zappa)

QWEST installed 48 fibers per conduit, last I heard they were using about 3. And they have a spare conduit.
I guess the spare conduit is insurance against the roving packs of backhoes, right?
