Harold I still don't think you understand. :-) Secunia DOES do the research already, so you or I won't have to. When they find a vulnerability or the like with an OS, browser, or software, they send out the alerts with the fixes. Then it's up to the user (you, I, etc.) to decide if we want to install the patch or not, and of course it is wise to do so unless it's determined that we don't need it; either due to the obvious that we don't use the OS or software, or, we don't need it due to our specific setup and configurations. -Clint
God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B." Clint, you are right again. I get the PCWorks Digest and I thought your commnet was directed to me. What happened in this case (your Thu, 15 Jun 2006 post, http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12424.html) was that I first saw 1) your remark, "No one is forcing you to read them," followed by 2) the remark I now reasize you were directing your comment to, followed by 3) my question to you. The fact that my question (3) was included as a thread in that posting made me think you were responding to me. If you look at it, it could be interpreted that way. Regarding these Secunia Research vulnerability reports, it's just something else that will, if I let it, take me away from the beautiful weather we are having here in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn. I 'gotta' get out on the boards (that's what we call the boardwalk) and do some jogging/powerwalking, whatever I can do, and leave the secunia reseach the more sophisticated computer users. --- Harold > From: "Support-OrpheusComputing.com" > <clip> You need to not only look at the reply, but WHAT a reply is FOR and TO whom. <snip> > If not, maybe here: <http://secunia.com/secunia_research/> or > here: > <http://secunia.com/about_secunia_advisories/> <snip> > > <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12430.html>: > > It > > amazes me how remarks can be picked up the wrong way... > > <snip> ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
