Re: Pull them off said by GamerGeek:said by patcat88:Computer license, otherwise you get an internet appliance. Once you outlaw computers, only outlaws will have computers... or something like that... Outlaws (people who would get computer license, or illegally have one) are few compared to the sheep (joe six pack with internet appliance). |

said by pspcrazy:With the addition of the bandwith that gets used up in the first hour of the attack, for me with a gigabit port it adds up fast :| Personally I hate caps because it'll cost people that are bots, and they'll never know since it's mostly non technical people who become bots in the first place, so they won't hit their caps either way. It's pretty easy for an ISP to tell if a user is a zombie. While I doubt an ISP will patrol this on their own, if a user suddenly uses 10x the bandwidth of last month, it's pretty trivial to figure out why when they call in asking what their overage charge is for. |

Macs, and any *NIX machine in general is an overall bigger target because it's more likely to be connected to a broadband connection, and the stability and versatility that a *NIX system offers is much more powerful.
Rootkits, rather than viruses, have been our major problem and they are more or less universal across systems.
