They are patched within a rather short period of time. I was trying to be in line with what Scott had to say in his original post. But he added a rather in depth explaination of the scenerio for Linux. Plus said better what Microsoft does with security vulnerabilities. The DOS was DDOS that Scott was explaining. I've seen it expressed both ways. With the DOS abrieviation. I assume Disk Operating System myself. Jim Kevin L. Brown wrote: > Selecting editing.
