Re: [Full-Disclosure] Windoze almost managed to 200x repeat 9/11

The last Windows OS that had that problem, as I recall, was the original release of Windows 95. MS issued a patch and said they never thought someone would leave a computer turned on that long.

Maybe this "Windows server" is actually running on Windows 95? Kind of sounds par for the gov.

joo,

are you speaking for m$?

the article clearly states:

" Microsoft told Techworld it was aware of the reports but was not immediately
able to comment."

you know that "not able to comment" basically means "screwed" ?
