RE: Microsoft's Ten Laws of Security

["jt" <jt@xxxxxx>]

Al,

Didn't have time to check the link...  But SURE enjoyed your lampoon of
it...!  ROFLMAO...  Whew...!

Honestly, though.. I don't see how it qualifies as "Microsoft bashing"...

Unfortunately, not at all.

| As I read through the detail behind this security guidance, I
| could not help
| indulge in some Microsoft bashing.
|
| Law # 1 about not running programs on your computer from an
| untrusted source
| & I am thinking that for most of us that source is Microsoft.
|
| Law # 2 about letting someone else alter the OS of your computer
| ... who do
| we know to trust to do this?  Every vendor with software to sell
| us when it
| is to a Microsoft operating system.
|
| Law # 3 if a bad buy has unrestricted access to your computer,
| its not your
| computer anymore.  Tell me again about this NET thing that will
| look after MY
| DATA and let me have access only for a price.
