The British Parliament was attacked late last year by hackers who tried toexploit a recent serious Microsoft Windows flaw, security experts confirmedon Friday.MessageLabs, the e-mail-filtering provider for the U.K. government, toldZDNet UK that targeted e-mails were sent to various individuals withingovernment departments in an attempt to take control of their computers. Thee-mails harbored an exploit for the Windows Meta File vulnerability. The attack occurred over the Christmas period and came from China, said MarkToshack, manager of antivirus operations at MessageLabs, who added that thee-mails were intercepted before they reached the government's systems. "The attack definitely came from China--we know that because we log the IPaddresses. The U.K. Government was targeted but none (of the e-mails) gotthrough. No one was affected. They were attacked, but they (the government)didn't know about it until we told them," Toshack said...._______________________________________________Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts.https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsecNote: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
Well, China is the source for most online attacks. I think people there are computer-idiots (or something), so they get exploited and become open proxies that attacks go through.
I think they setup those proxies, because they don't care.

Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

When I was @ M$ HQ, there was this poster with regions with most copies of illicit copies of Windows. China looked like a bright red dot.So, since they can never patch their systems, they get infected easily.
Who gives a damn? I fuck sheep all the time.

False... we had an argument about that on IRC yesterday. Newby didn't even go as far as to claim it was based on UNIX, but he did say there was a UNIX subsystem. TehUser asked for documentation and Newby was unable to find anything supporting his claim directly.Vista is not based on UNIX. Tell your engineering teacher he's wrong!
