Port Charlotte, FL | Comet cursor is the devil. And labelling that bafoon Steve Gibson as a "security consultant" isn't much better. |

You're kidding right? You actually think that Steve Gibson is a 'bafoon'?
The correct spelling for 'bafoon' is buffoon.

Have you gone to his web site »www.grc.com ? He is probably one of the best security consultants there is. Go and read his article on the DoS attack he had last year. |

No, I'm not kidding, he IS a bafoon. (And I'll spell it however I please)
Read up on his findings about XP bringing the internet to his knees. Then as soon as your done, educate yourself on the protocols and reasons he gives as to why, and you will quickly see that when it comes to internet security, Steve Gibson is just this side of retarded.
Steve Gibson only appeals to one type of person. They type that knows absolutley nothing about security, protocols, and thinks that Zone-Alarm is a good firewall, and has no idea what a real firewall is.
And the sad thing is that people that fit the above statement go to his site for knowledge and answers and usually leave in worse condition than they started.

Yes, and like I said, if you knew anything about network/internet security you would see that he is STILL an idiot.

Colorado Springs, CO | And what about you? What makes you an authority on network/internet security? I took a peek at this page and noticed that you don't have a single post in the Security Forum here.

Uhhh, just an observation, but since XP was found shortly after its release to have major security flaws, which were patched... to which a relieved Gibson has stated his thanks...
Seems to me that someone calling Gibson a retarded "bafoon" is kind of a self-revealing statement. |

Interestingly, the flaws found in XP had pretty much nothing to do with what Stevearino had been crowing about for months beforehand.

I think he is an intelligent man whose decisions unfortunately are not always based on his intelligence.
And unfortunately I have to say similar about theregister.co.uk who sort of has been going againct grc for a while now. They too seem to have a political agenda these days...
