I'll take it, less than two weeks the days start getting Shorter! Went from winter to summer, so far and it beats getting nuked by China for now..

Dealing with what appears to be to the best of my knowledge, tcp sockstress attacks on one of my machines initially connecting to the net and the three way handshake receiving 4 syn packs from ip addresses from within china, I can tell you that it would be much more comforting if the large majority of slashdotters where trying to be a little less funny (I would like to see the "funny" moderation eliminated from slashdot because it seems everybody wants to quit their day job) so that some people within this community would realize the significance of these security breaches and the possible implications they have with security around the world and change their priorities to help solve them. Tcp is up against a real threat from people who have known of its vulnerabilities from before the turn of the century. It is the exploit that will at some point in time bring down many critical systems around the world.

Am I the only one who wonders about the untimely death of Jack C. Louis who was working on the definitive vulnerabilities of the TCP/IP Sockstress?
