Not so my friend, the lowest ranking enlisted man in the Navy is the Midshipman. I know this is not officially an enlisted rank, but they are not yet commissioned and when they come aboard for training, not even SR's give them any respect!
As they should, when the 18 year old punk is just weeks away from ordering around a bunch of enlisted men who have been there for years.

| MAN, We need to act QUICK!! I tell ya, we(The US) need to "Hire" the Elite Hackers, and start learning from them on HOW to protect ourselves..
I will tell you ONE THING:
This is just the beginning. It's ONLY going to get worse!!
EDIT: Just think on WHAT has actually changed within the past few years.. The "Zombie" PC's were on Dial-Up(Don't know the %, but some were). NOW, the General public is getting on Broadband, thus Fatter Pipes, which *Could* speed up attacks towards whatever they want. WE(US Again) need to get on the bandwagon, and start educating people in how to secure their PC's!!

If you are competent, IIS can be a good solution.

| | | | I am reminded of the automobile seatbelt interlocks on cars in the mid 70's.
The car would not start unless you had your seatbelt fastened. Me wonders how many lives would have been saved had that system not been nulled by the courts. I know of one 16 year old girl who would be alive today.
My point?
You are the exception Detth. More and more we are learning what a weapon a compromised computer with a broadband connection can become.
As evidenced my this latest attack, there are far too many admins/users who won't take the simple steps to secure their systems for their own and everyone else's good.
I hate to think that M$ would have to take control of our systems to insure that all the patches are in place, but it's getting to be a very nasty world out there in cyber-space.
It's too bad that we have to put a gun to the head of (L)users to force them to protect themselves, but it's becoming evident that it may be the only solution. | |

**SMACKS** Whatcha thinking?! Go ahead and go back to Dial-Up, and tell us how it is. I'll keep my broadband, thank you. 
I keep my PC up to date with all of the patches twice a week, and running a router. I feel safe here, cause I check my email through the web-interface. I don't have Outlook Express, or Outlook configured.. And, I don't open up Attachments, UNLESS I know it's legit! This has kept me safe from Trojans, Virii, etc for over 10 years.

| | BACK IN DA DAY Before my ISP disabled netbios I used to scan army net ranges w/ xSharez and I found a ton of pc's that had win95/98 w/ no PW or weren't patched so I could run the pw Brute Force and gain full access.. lol
I still remember I got onto one Navy PC w/ User names/Passwords conbo's to safes and a ton of other crap..
Of course I downloaded the files but I never had the guts to mess w/ the info I had..
Lucky for them I was looking for pr0n, warez and stuff to download and not passwords or secure info..
Also I think the guy that used the PC was a comander or "manager" because he had a ton of reports on transfers n' stuff of subordinats..
This was over 1yr 1/2 ago so I'm sure they fixed the prob..
Just goes to show goobers w/ pc's and broadband = security risk when they have axs to important info...
I'm sure if you scanned the RIAA ip range w/ xSharez you could probably find a ton of PC's w/ little to basic security and see what they have on their whole HDD.. | |

...or the cashier could hang onto the carbon (if they use the little slide thingy...whatever it's called) or memorize your credit card number (it's not that hard) or whip out the digi-cam (hell, film will work!) and snap a picture of your credit card, or...
There are lots of ways to abuse someone else's credit card that have nothing at all to do with the internet.

There are easier ways for even a simple-minded cashier to memorize your card (see skimmer.) That's why you never hand anyone your card, even in restaurants. | |

They will allocate as much money as you request them to allocate, and then will push all that money into the newly created 'one-time use account'. So your real account is protected (what about cracking the bank's db?), and whoever hijacks the fake number..well..they get a fake number

| NAvy Well, I read this report yesterday morning.
To clear up a thing or two: Old hackers are used by the US government, when a cracker takes on the US Government they are actually taking on the 'Team'. Will the cracker get caught ~Of course he will, will this be advertised -No.
For a short brief for those that think the US.gov is without some smarts, check put the 'FUN' thing the Army put out; a lot of plle had fun with it...and that, friends, was just a game!
.gov employees thousands of programmers et al and yes, sometimes something happens and although, as yet it's not a notable Service ~You can bet this branch will get known in the years to follow.
I wish the damn media would, along with supposed 'smart' users, could tell the difference between a hacker & a cracker. The two are opposite in the concept of what they do, as an end result!
Cheers
