Not to troll, but doesn't anybody see a big big problem?
Okay, so somebody out there is coding Worms especially for Linux. No problem, that was to be expected.
But the problem is this, the patch could be made by anyone, right? So this patch could also be infected or make thinks worse...
I myself NEVER check code on Linux, just because I can't code and don't want to... So I would download the patch and install it, but how can I be sure the patch isn't another Worm or Trojan?
I could wait for an "official" release by Suse, but hey... I want to patch this [fill new worm name her] worms threat as soon as possible, mainly BECAUSE I don't have a clue how it works...
Please don't reply with "Get A Clue" because that's for me (and I guess for a lot of people) no option...
Well, let's see: if RedHat coded and produced all of those utilities, and/or (most importantly) gave you no choice but to include them in an install, I would scream evil monopoly at them too.
How come this is rated Troll?
I think it's a good question. There are a lot of people interested in playing games with there computer. I think it will boost the se of Linux enormously when there are more games for Linux available (mind you: they wouldn't even have to be free!)

Why use fdisk when you have Partition Magic? How could you be so stupid?
;-)
Fdisk rules
my mother has actually installed Mandrake 8.2 before (honest).
Could your mother please help me with fdisk?
Don't lie!
My mother could install mandrake
Don't lie!

No, but 95 % of them DO.
