I think you meant your first line to be "All OS vendors should bite the bullet and re-write their code with security in mind." Not sure why you singled MS out for that statement. Especially considering the rest of the post. joe -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com [mailto:full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com] On Behalf Of Clairmont, Jan M Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 11:52 AM To: full-disclosure () lists netsys com Subject: [Full-Disclosure] RE: [Full-disclosure]MS should re-write code with security in mind. lame bitching about xpsp2 M$ should just bite the bullet and re-write windows with security in mind, give it a true process scheduler, multiuser with windows as a client server processes. Build in 256 bit encryption and secure communications between processes and external communication with no unencrypted traffic. That would shut down a lot of these mindless bugs. All mail should be encrypted and point-to-point, with the mail servers only able to re-direct and broadcast mail with authentication. Maybe we could slow a lot of the hacking down and spam. But again until the market place demands it M$, Linux and everybody else it's business as usual. Keeps us employed I guess.
