-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've been keeping an eye on my network, bit have not seen any real change or increase in the types of traffic and alerts I normally see... The reality of the situation is that these folks are extremely well trained and motivated. They could not have done what they did without a certain level of intelligence that we in the computing security world should be wary of. I would not take anything for granted right now... - --------------------------------------------------------------- Bradley H.

I hadn't considered the possibility, assuming that parties that would fly planes into buildings aren't likely to be interested in writing viruses. We did have one customer voluntarily disable their Internet connection for the next 24-hours out of concern for "viruses". They said something about a warning from the FBI. The FBI's website is apparantly unreachable (or overloaded) at the moment. - --Rich _________________________________________________________ Rich Puhek ETN Systems Inc. _________________________________________________________ - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------ This list is provided by the SecurityFocus ARIS analyzer service.
