It's no defense of the hackers; it's a pure condemnation of the B.S. "security" that you claim Microsoft possesses. THAT is what is truly sickening.
It very well most certainly was
Nonsense. Please stop trying to bolster your opinion as fact (which it is not). The fact of the matter is that some joker overseas has (once again) clearly demonstrated that the closed source approach which you vehemently claim is "secure" actually possesses no security at all.
And as I said before, that is what is truly sickening. If you can't live with that, that's your problem.
You people are SOOO consumed by your hatred of M$ you can't even make any honest arguments, AT ALL.
Hah! If there's any lack of honest argument in this equation, it's your red herrings and strawman arguments in which you claim that Microsoft has the largest footprint (it doesn't) and that closed source is more secure (it isn't). And when called on the carpet for these fallacies, you resort to ad hominem attack.
This sort of thing I expect on DU, not Free Republic.

LOL @ your insane deduction! They "open sourced" a new worm, proving not only do many attempted hacks come from overseas or M$ haters, they are often created by open source groups, which this one is (no code for sale).
