Don't see you here very often. What's the occasion? Care to share your opinions with us? Perhaps you'd like to explain how mysterious vulnerabilities can form from the unlikely yet functional combination of win-2K IE6 patch files used on a win-98 system. And even more - how those vulnerabilities would even become discovered and leveraged against it. The depths of irrationality, fear and dread as expressed by a few here are astounding. Files developed and released by none other than Microsoft itself, designed to address KNOWN vulnerabilities in IE6, files known to function with no apparent incompatibility with Win-98, are feared and demonized as possibly, no - actually conveying as of yet unknown, unidentified, uncataloged vulnerabilities uniquely to the win-98 platform for which will never be discovered except by those ever industrious hackers who are renoun for making their own discoveries of arcane system vulnerabilities. Since fiction is the topic this evening, what are you and MEB getting from Santa this Christmas?

HEY STUPID2. they were DESIGNED FOR NT,,, NOT 9X, now what part of they aren't designed for 9X are you friggin missing... Hey, how about we put some C code from Linux in Windows, think it will work... it makes as much of an argument as this stupidity you continue to spout... -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.org/ref/windows-main.htm Windows Info, Diagnostics, Security, Networking http://peoplescounsel.org The "real world" of Law, Justice, and Government ___--- |
