More on the recent "mysterious" Microsoft attacks: theRegister

Sun, 09/08/2002 - 07:20 — charlie.collins

Turns out recent Microsoft attacks that have had the company stumped are now being defined as "Trojan-Related" but of course not a "Trojan". Microsoft wont tell anyone how the exploits are bieng pulled off, just that all the latest patches need to be applied. What is so funny about this one is all of the earlier releases by Microsoft (that are now gone!) claimed this was probably a Trojan (blaming it on the user installing a binary that was infected) and the fact that it took them so long to figure out what was happening. Microsoft is the 78 Chevy Nova full of clowns at the Operating System circus. Enjoy.   MS flips on new global Windows remote-root vuln: theRegister

Re: More on the recent

I would think they'd be more like clowns in a pinto.
