aeaeuhaeuh i don't even know why they still warn us about security flaws in windows...
i mean, they could just turn all windows onto some kind of mega-ftp server program, where you can get in by virtually EVERY SINGLE PORT

Well, that depends on how you count the damage. 'Cause I heard that when the Blaster hit, there was this incident in Sweden, where a cellular phone operator had 40 of their servers crash. So, I'm guessing that it would hurt their business "a little", and at least I would count that as a damage caused by the virus.

Any piece of software created by Microsoft has flaws that are easy to exploit.....

Oh yeah, never thought about that... lol.
