so, the Media Defender hack

holy crap, you SOOOOOOOO deserved it.

and i'm not even talking about the bad karma "deserved it", but the "jayzus, you are UTTER MORONS" deserved it. MD's attorneys are supposed to be one of the most respected firms in the country - and specialize in this shit - but THEY DON'T HAVE VPN?????????? OR PGP????? and run on Microsoft servers??????

yeah, you two deserve each other.


for all of you IE users out there, MD's crap doesn't seem to work on Mozilla, and Safari for Macs. they're taking advantage of all of the security problems with IE. just, you know, fyi.

I totally agree there's no excuse for 1) not having a vpn, 2) not using PGP (the zip files portion is FREE, for crying out loud), and 3) compatibility with Firefox. Not to mention that there is no excuse for basic security breaches.

But... Safari can behave weirdly (I never use it -- only Firefox and IE) and Microsoft servers have been the standard for a long time for companies.

no doubt on the servers....they had em at the Hellmouth, but even our IT guy, who LOOOOOOOOOOVED Microsoft, knew better than to guard against their inbred fucktardedness.

i just can't believe these guys, so-called "experts", were this inhumanly stupid.

heh, you KNOW I could tell you stories on this subject... I am often amazed at how people who should know better just can't be bothered. Also? IE... is the 90% solution on the net... sometimes, it's just not worht making it work for firefox, and safari, not at all. UNLESS yur user base is likely to be using thoem a lot. :shrug:

no doubt. but again, these guys were going up against hackers. by definition, that requires security. oi.
