This is just a silly example, but root passes should be EXTREMELY long.
let me guess, iptables not enabled, no firewall service up, no bfd, SSH was up unfiltered and the root pass was a 3 letter word like god, to quote the movie "hackers" with angelina jolie. Hack the gibson. Hack the planet. Go Iran. Just kidding.
Alot of people are reluctant to use a firewall, even though you can easily do it with SuSE and YaST2.
I have the pay version of SuSE9.3 Pro, which is well worth the $99 price tag. I mostly run fedora core boxes though, and this is a really good alternative to other iptables interfaces.
Get yourself those, make sure non of your dir's are 777, have strong 20+ char long passwords, don't RPM fetch from shady repositories, and you're on your way!
Hey, it could have been worse, the claria deal could have went through, and they could have gotten their spydata that way and unclassified claria from their antispyware app.
What am I saying, what do I care, I don't use windows. ClamAV can handle the sendmail.
CNet editors seem to think IE7's going to kill firefox, though they present no facts at all or features for IE7, notice how CNet won't so much as let you submit a linux application.
aren't most people that work there the same way?
They all say they love microsoft, but I'm sure they don't like it half as much as they say they do to keep their cushy jobs.
"I would say years ago we did not fully understand. I'm speaking aggregately as a company - did not fully understand Linux and open source and so whatever you're dealing with something that is a bit of unknown, I think it's natural to have somewhat of an emotional reaction to that. And also if things didn't quite make sense to you, when you thought people might be acting somewhat irrational, then again it led to somewhat of an emotional response in some ways."

I have 3 linux installations including FC4, SuSE93 and MDK2005LE,
why the hell should I beta Windows Vista?
If I want little desktop effects, I'll turn on X compositing with gcompmgr and use gDesklets.
I like Firefox anyway, but it doesn't load certain sites well, so I still use Mozilla.
