The previous entry with a link to Kerry's concession has the dubious distinction of being my 100th blog entry. First I held out hope a trailer full of votes would be found in Ohio. Then visions of a reformed, moderate, and uniting second term for Bush danced in my head. Bush's now famous "political captial" speech put an end to my fantastic voyage of the mind. We're back to an alternate reality where 3% margins are mandates and unity is achieved by working only with people who "share our goals".
Discouraged is the word that comes to mind. At least when the election was on I felt like I could do something, but now what? I don't know yet. In the meantime, here's a few points of interest.
Like I said before, watch your Google-Butt. This flight attendant lost her job because her employer decided they didn't like her blog.
The Worms Keep Coming
A new variant of the MyDoom worm came on the scene this week. It exploits yet another vulnerability in Internet Explorer. This virus installs a web server on your computer then emails every address it can find on your computer, inviting the recipient to click on a link. Clicking on the link takes them to your webserver that serves up a page that exploits the vulnerability in IE to download and install the worm. All the victim sees is a blank page. This also puts sysadmins in a bind. Upgrade to SP2 or risk infection.
