Oh, good point, dog. Unix has had years of hardening. In fact, do you know what a nix virus program does? It checks for MS trojans and worms coming at Windows users through the network. In fact, I think that was a complaint of Bill Gates awhile back; something about nix systems not doing their job by catching MS exploits coming over the network. --- Unix as hackers paradise? Yup. Everyday - peer review; hammering and patching. It hums quietly along in the background. Meanwhile 20% of the network (MS) makes up nearly all the security/exploit headlines. --- What's up with this rudedog? UNIX has a better PR department? -JCJ
