I didn't think you knew what karma is being as all you can do is insult
and gave no definition. Lying and insulting people is not good karma,

Oh look Alias can't think of a better reply.

What would be the point of providing you or nostop an article?
You choose not to believe.
You don't think there are any vulnerabilities in Ubuntu even though they are
on their bug tracker.
Just keep your head in the sand you will be fine.

bloatware then.

Ubuntu?

Just read that page, not that I didn't already have a pretty good grasp of
Linux, I use it daily, so this wasn't news to me personally.

Just struck me funny . . .

"Every time you request to do something that has to do with the system, an
administrator password is required (and if you're not an administrator on
this system, you simply can't do it). Viruses can't just go around and
delete or modify what they want in the system they don't have the
authorization for that. "

The very same behavior that so many people complain about in Vista . . .
perhaps this is why UAC doesn't bother me one bit in Vista? I'm so used to
similar behavior in Linux . . . hmm . . .

Windows permission system is useless, lots of malware programs, after
activated by a non-previleged user... let's say user=peter, turns
user=SYSTEM right after activation, and the user SYSTEM has more powers
than the administrator.
don't ask me how they do it, but i've seen lot's of malware doing this stuff
when attacking windows systems. this previlege escalation fenomena is not
so rare and it is instantaneous.

i might not use windows at home any more, but i have a network of more than
200 Pc's at work, and i've allready have to clean infections that would not
taken place if windows permission system really worked as it should.

Frank's knee-jerk, Pavlov dog reaction: insult the messenger in a lame
attempt to distract the message. The pathetic thing is that Frank
doesn't realize what he's doing and says to himself, after posting a
message like the one above, "That told em!"

Now, he'll jump on this post and lie and insult me. The question is will
he do it five minutes after this post hits Usenet or ten.
