Title: So, this is awesome
Post by: MyndFyre on June 16, 2009, 04:12:18 PM
Apparently, someone hit my company's servers to help spread this virus:

One of our employees got compromised, her username and passwords for several internal and a couple external (client-owned) servers were stolen, and a number of FTP servers that she uses were broken into as well.

Ironically, she's a Mac user. :)

So, your company helped spread a virus to its own customers, and you call it awesome? Remind me not to deal with you guys. :P
