You can start with: www.spywareinfo.com ...then you can go to any antivirus site (well, go to Panda and F-Prot and Kaspersky) and show them all the stuff that's available for Windows; then you can go simply to: www.astalavista.com ...and show them all the stuff for hacking Windows and other Microsoft products. It's very easy to build a "Horror Show Presentation" about any Microsoft OS and MS IE, MS Outlook and MS Outlook Express. Even easier to just state that there are more than 82,000 viruses; 13 of them affect linux/unix - and those 13 live in labs and not in the "wild". Microsoft products account for literally 99% of all viruses spread. Microsoft products are built to literally allow your Email client and your browser to install programs and run programs that you do not even know are running; hence it's easily bent to use as a backdoor. Microsoft OS's are built in such a way as to literall broadcast themselves once they're either connected to the internet, or to a network. And they're not just broadcasting the fact they're there, they're broadcasting every open port and vulnerability they have. -- Sun Jun 1 07:40:00 EST 2003 07:40:00 up 1 day, 16:49, 3 users, load average: 0.46, 0.19, 0.16 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 & RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * Jargon Coiner (#7) An irregular feature that aims to give you advance warning of new jargon that we've just made up. * O'REILLY O'WRITING: Going to a bookstore and copying down notes from an O'Reilly computer book that you can't afford. * DEEP WRITE MODE: Similar to "deep hack mode", but applies to people writing editorials or (very rarely) Slashdot comments.
