Re: [microsound] microsound WORM/VIRUS

Total nonsense

Linux is only free if your time is worthless.

There are indeed viruses/worms for Linux ... us sysadmins are having an
annoying time with this guy:
http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1105-960887.html

and there was this old one that preyed on a BIND bug:

Hopefully folks will one day realize that OS Holy Wars are just like the old
game console wars all us dorky guys had in grade school.

Linux is cheaper than everything

(*) actually is not only a crusade of "the holy programmers"
against "the evil MS" .. MSWindows is the O.S. that is used by the
biggest part of existing computers. So if I want my virus to spread
fast, I won't write a virus for Commodore64. stop here or we go off-
topic.
