Pah!
I have been spending the morning patching computers at my work because of a stupid microsoft security hole! The story is, Microsoft released a report about a vulnerability (they had been notified of it months before) that made all Win2K, XP, and NT 4 computers susceptible to remote take-overs, etc a month ago. They said not to worry about it essentially because it would be too hard to write a virus to exploit it.
Well, it wasn't. So, we had to disconnect our whole building from TAMU's network, shut down all the computers, and manually install a patch one computer by one. Bah!
And what's worse, the government is using Microsoft software for things like homeland security, when Microsoft itself doesn't have any security at all!
As I said previously, Pah!
