Microsoft late Wednesday issued patches for three security holes affecting its Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), Windows 2000 platform and versions of the Internet Information Server (IIS). The Redmond, Wash.-based software giant warned that the most critical of the three bugs was an unchecked buffer in PPTP (define) implementation that could enable denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. | ||

There are actually very few things that you need to reboot for in Windows these days. Changing the video driver (actually, you don't always have to reboot when changing the video driver in Win.NET Server), critical updates, and a couple of other things.
The only time you have to reboot when changing a driver, beeyp, is when changing the video driver, which you also have to do in Linux, well at least, you have to restart X. Reboots are a poor excuse to use Linux. Also, why use Linux when you can use something much better, like BSD. |

beeyp: cross-post from yesterdays news, something you should perhaps think about.
"beeyp: It seems you ALWAYS say such stupid comments as "... trolls do on this site", yet in nearly all cases, there is no one on this site that does this. I've always liked this site because it has always been open to ideas, not neccessarily siding one way or another, as far as the users go, and people that actually show intelligence... don't ruin the experience for me, as well as every other person. With your attitude, and posting a porn pic on your profile, I'd say you were about 13." |
