It finally took someone at close to VP level to get him to fix it. Last I heard, he was saying something on the phone like "Yes sir, you're right sir. Sorry sir." The thing that sucks is that he KNEW he couldn't be a problem, since he wasn't running IIS. I had the packet captures and obvious grabs for default.ida to prove it. Believe it. I have at least three verified, and that was using web server logs they'd hit, and ethereal running on the openbsd machine in my office, which sits right next to the local building router. [Yes, it's true. IRL, I work for Big Company X.] No, sorry, lots of people are not cleaning up machines. I'm still being hit at home by the same machines I got hit by when this first started, for the most part. Sure, some of them are gone, but some are sure still here. -- Open source should be about giving away things voluntarily.
