Whatever it is, we have been dealing with this and a host of other issues from them for years.
Absolutely love the boards, and some of the staff is really cool, but the company really is abusive when it comes to this sort of stuff.
We're likely to see viruses far beyond the "excel macros" we've seen in the past.
I have fluorescent lights that use pretty much exactly the same amount of power to output 100W equivalent of light. And those bulbs cost not much more than a buck a piece. What exactly does these provide to me for $30?
Now that Oracle owns Sparc processors from Sun, there is no reason for them to help out their competitor.
First was a 500 MB WD. Last was 500GB WD.
Three orders of magnitude larger. 1000x the size.
It's actually very difficult to truly destroy data, especially remotely. There is actually a reason the DoD spec. requires physical destruction of the media.
Unless you have overwritten the area on the physical disk that contained the data, multiple times, the data can still be recovered.
The article doesn't lead me to believe that he's tried very hard to get this data back.. Maybe somebody (not me) who cares about this resource, should offer an attempt at data recovery.. Just be sure to hurry, before they do something that will ensure you cannot recover the data.
I've recovered data off of formatted HDD's, off of corrupted file systems, off of compact flash cards and other media (Really useful if you want to keep those photo's that someone thought was deleted, be aware of this people).

Come on mods.... this was TRULY funny... I laughed in the middle of a meeting!
Is it bad that I'm somehow slightly pleased that I indirectly caused you to laugh in the middle of a meeting????
Crayons = wax. As a dad I can tell you when a crayon goes through the dryer it is carnage, so if your memory stick threat model includes going through the wash, I would avoid wax.
LOL- No kids.. Didn't think about the crayon factor..
