TheWahbinator Share Posted August 16, 2005 I am praying that Fox News gets hit HARD. They would really really make it sound like the end of the world. 586387255[/snapback] No, but I just heard from them that ABCNews and The New York Times were hit (though World News Tonight is going on right now without a hitch) We need vid clips everyone!

waurbind Share Posted August 16, 2005 LMFAO, they are telling people to contact the fbi "if they belive they have been attacked" telling people there is no need to worry about airlines being closed or terrorists, some dumb**** just opened the wrong email attachment and they are talking about it as though an asteroid was about to colide with earth Link to post Share on other sites

exobot Share Posted August 16, 2005 um, yeah...it was said in the FIRST post. 586387296[/snapback] Perhaps reading the article I linked to may be an idea? RTFA. For those of you too lazy, they first say it's Rbot, then later on they say it may be Zotob. Can't remember, but iirc Zotob uses a rbot backend. Link to post Share on other sites

dagamer34 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It's really dumb that Microsoft practically keeps anti-virus companies in business by practically telling hackers that there are exploits in the system. I mean, in the description of the patch, it pretty much tells hackers where to look and create exploits for viruses. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremy1 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It's really dumb that Microsoft practically keeps anti-virus companies in business by practically telling hackers that there are exploits in the system.586387319[/snapback] What other choice do they have? Just keeping the problems quiet, and never issuing a patch? That'll do a whole lot of good. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremy1 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I feel sorry for the I.T guy whos gonna get fired for this586387329[/snapback] I don't. CNN's IT department is obviously incompetent. They should just fire everyone and start over. Link to post Share on other sites
