Re:Russian porn: offtopic

You know, I'm sitting here using Microsoft Windows and Explorer. (I do use linux,

but not for this system.)

And one of the things that makes me just a little bit paranoid about those things

is the question of whether there might be a new virus attached. After all,

there is a huge list of viruses at McAfee, and most of them are first posted to

one or another list server.

And I know that they say -- if you don't open the attachments or link to the sites --

then you're pretty safe. And in general that is correct. But nonetheless, I

don't think that there is anyone sane who doesn't believe that Microsoft has

left themselves a back door to every system. And such a back door can be

exploited.

That is one of the things that I don't worry about nearly so much with

open-source software.

Just a thought.
