"Windows XP is still the leader in security, for both home, and business users," Gates began. "We at Microsoft believe firmly in the importance of computer security, and we recognize that the number one threat to security are not the individuals who attack insecure systems, but, rather, the individuals who publicize security holes in the first place. If people would just learn to remain quiet, these evil hackers wouldn't know of any insecurities, and your computer would be safe." Gates then turned the microphone over to Microsoft's new Chief of Security, Gunther Goebels. "Let this be a warning to everyone within the sound of my voice: if you attempt to discover and disclose security holes within any Microsoft operating system, you will be dealt with, accordingly. We will stop at nothing to ensure that XP users continue to enjoy a safe, secure and private computing experience." Goebels then revealed the first Blue Squad Of Death, or BSOD. As the blue-jacketed men marched across the lawn, Goebels announced, "Make no mistake. You are either with Microsoft, or you are with the hackers." This is a excerpt from an article on Bill Gates. I'm going to save this as the dumbest thing that has ever come out of his mouth. This even tops the "internet is a fad" quote he made in '93. He doesn't blame it on his product he blames it on security experts. Hey moron, if there were no security experts then how would you make a "more secure" product? Guessing? Voodoo magic? Oh and asshole, with raw sockets available in XP (like in all *nix) I can now spoof IP's as well as send off some mean ass dDoS attacks while easily slipping thorough TCP/UDP/IP straight to the network layer. Why even put it in there? Sockets are for use on an application level, not a system level, and there are NO applications that have a valid need for the capabilities of raw sockets. None. Nadda. Zero. Zip. And some people say I don't know my shit. I know my shit, I just can't explain it to someone who doesn't understand the basic OSI Model. Fuck you, just because I don't play the game anymore doesn't mean I can't. Bitch.
