    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    Well at least they are reporting these...and maybe they are doing more vulnerability research with their products. They should since they are trying to be a security company as well as network.

    Just hope there's no new serious IOS vuln. Oh crap hope I didn't jinx it by saying that.

    You did jinx it and there are quite a few more vulnerabilities, but you can wait and see about those. Cisco is quite good about reporting known vulnerabilities and it's poretty good about testing for vulnerabilities. Nothing made by man is perfect. So don't look down your nose at them.

    Cisco has always had issues and will continue to have issues but the real question is ........How many people can actually exploit these vulnerabilities? Comparing them to M$ is ludicrous IMHO. Any script kiddie in the world can download a proggy and exploit M$ vulnerabilities, but it's not so with Cisco.
    Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.
