I didn't look too closely, but it seemed like the LinuxToday.com article was
a crock. They were doing a
whois microsoft.com
and pointing to the output as proof of a crack. (This is, of course, not how
WHOIS works -- that simply searches for anything that *starts* with
MICROSOFT.COM). You can do
whois linux
with similar effects.
