this OpenSSL vulnerability has been around for quite a while now!  I guess some Linux users are as bad at updating their systems reguarly as Windows users are.

I could not agree more. Lax security methods - there is little excuse.

i gained a whole new respect for linux last night as i was checking my mail and Redhat sent me an email detailing a bug/problem with fetch mail (i think it was fetch mail anyways), they also provided the link to the update, and gave a detailed description of the problem. i believe the fix was posted soon after it was discovered. how fucking cool is that ?!!    now, when a bug is discovered in windows, it would take, what like 3years for them to fix it, if they fix it, let alone even tell me about it. so fuck off microsoft. if there were a virus out to get linux, i think that as soon as it were discovered, someone would find a way to neutralize it, and be kind enough to spread the solution to the community. i dont think that would be possible in windows, it will always be an insecure "operating system"
anyways, go linux

Actually, they would say..." it's an undocumented feature, and if it's causing problems, then it's because you don't know how to use it properly, you dumbass uneducated windows user! By the way, you should upgrade to our new and improved release, this one really works!"

I would LOL, but it's sadly true.   :(
