MSSQL is being hit bad, using a 5-6 month old vunerability. If microsoft fix that tomorrow that would be quite quick for them!

The title of this thread should not have been "shame on SQL" but rather "shame on MSSQL and shame on M$ and shame on those idiots who use it".  (http://smile.gif)

Now that's just not fair. I know plenty of people who use microsoft products, they are not idiots. most of them are just ignorant of anything except microsoft. There are idiots but dont let them give all windows users a bad name. They need to see the alternatives. BUT if they are using Microsoft SQL then i'm sure they have heard of them, in which case, they are likely idiots.

In general I find the following to be true:

Windows user = ignorant (see also: lost).
IIS user = idiot (see also: hopeless)
MSSQL user = ignorant idiot (see also: sucker).
MCSE = big dumb ignorant idiot (see also: thumb sucker).

Of course there are exceptions to the rule, but not many...
