I think Microsoft got the message when the dept. of homeland security basically Said (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=74&e=3&u=/cmp/20040702/tc_cmp/22103407) that M$ software is a risk to national security. The article says that Mozilla/Netscape may not protect either. I guess that means you need an operating system (http://www.linux.org/) without active X. Also this isn't a patch, this just turns off settings that should have never been on by default. I hope this whole mess ends with M$ fixing security in NT 5.1 instead of developing Longhorn which there isn't even Hardware (http://www.microsoft-watch.com/article2/0,1995,1581842,00.asp) that will run it yet.

Title: Hmm, a linux sub-group?

Well, seems to be a few of us Linux types here among the clusterheads!

Hmm, maybe we've stumbled onto something, ya think that maybe...

Nahhh! Couldn't be, I had my first cluster 24 years ago. Now that I think about it, thats the year Bill Gates snockered IBM. Coincidence?
But seriously, Windows gives everybody headaches, doesn't it?

There are a few of us, even one woman, maybe two. What is missing is our token defender of Redmond. I hope he isn't walking to Nashville.
