I most certainly did not, but for you to understand that it would require being able to read beyond a 3rd grade level.

You:

But since the majority of desktops are Windows and desktops are typically the least protected systems on the Internet hackers are going to attack Microsoft more than any other vendor. So the unpatched desktop hacks will also work on an unpatched servers--that's not shocking.
When you're dealing with the number of windows boxes that are on the Internet--there will always be an unpatched machine (whether it's server or desktop).

Of course. But aren't you guys also the ones loving the fact that sometimes Linux has more security flaws found than Windows? Shouldn't those flaws translate to server? Shouldn't Linux have a higher proportion of hacks? But it doesn't. Windows does.

What on earth are you talking about? You know you're taking that out of context (or you truly can't read beyond a 3rd grade level). I'm not going to repost the entire discussion as it's there for you to re-read when you learn how to read on at least a high school level then you *may* understand the point.

It is an obtuse position showing either ignorance or malice.

You make that comment and then proceed to post that ignorant post about desktop security. Talk about black pots calling people names.

You said desktop security affects server security, then you said "You can't compare the security of a server to a desktop--and you know that." Get your story straight.

Once again, you're taking it out of context...you'd make a great liberal reporter.

As I said when you learn how to read beyond a 3rd grade level you can try and re-read what was posted and see if you can comprehend. If you can't comprehend it you're probably not intellegent enough to, so I'm not going to waste my time saying the same thing over and over again.

Now if it makes you feel better, go ahead get the last post in on this topic. If you don't bring up any new points and just repeat your ignorant post that shows you can't read very well and have no capability of rational thinking and abstract thought I will not reply...allowing you to have the last word. Which I understand makes makes immature people feel like they won an argument...I know you're just dying to get the last word in.

You got the last word in the last time you were spouting nonsense, even that time offering the "last word" in order to make yourself feel superior.

You'd think these boys would have at some point heard of a "private" key, since they talk about encryption which is useless without one. They're so flipped out they think that making a private things public is how you secure them! I can't imagine normal people being that ignorant, must be some sort of mind control they're suffering from.

Maybe we should ask them for their SSN's and credit card numbers since they think keeping them obscure makes them impossible to protect. Probably don't have either, though.
