I SAID...



Do I need to put special emphasis on the words "non-publicly available" or is your level of comprehension sufficient to grasp what is being said...

Slammer and Code Red are ancient bloody history and their infections were predominantly against _publicly available_ servers.
Hey, I ain't hating against anyone. I saw your point, and my point was that Code Red and Slammer were against more than just _publicly avaliable_ servers. Corporations around the world got hit and hit hard with both, and many more (and by that I mean their internal networks, not just their POP's). Why is you and MLF decide to cut out only a tiny portion of what I post and argue against that? I think my point is _perfectly_ valid too, but you both seem to have missed it.

I'm not here to get "Anti-Points", I know you both have a ton more than me. I'm not here to "rock the boat". I'm here because I have an interest in computer security, and what I saw MLF post was technically correct, and yet still possibly wrong. In the context of the original post, it probably is correct, however, I'm still trying to get MLF to admit that worms, viruses, attacks can occur even in a correctly administered network / server configuration.
