    Default Anyone placing/taking bets?

    Just wondering if anyone is taking or placing bets on whether or not THIS SITE will still be up and running on MONDAY.

    Seems to me the FBI is about to shut down servers they 'don't like'

    What kind of odds are out there that this site will be on one of those servers? REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT'S TRUE OR NOT?

    just sayin...

    hope not

    The "REGARDLESS" part makes for a difficult odds calculation.

    I thought only individual computers were going to be shut down because of malware? Website servers are also susceptible to shutdown?

    I will now have to wait for Honu to wake up to translate the translation.

    You'd think we'd all have silver GIM decoder rings by now. . It's not like anyone with a computer can't figure out our dubious plans.

    I read on Cnet somewhere that there is supposed to be a very easy fix for this thing... also the numbers that they quoted that were affected didn't seem all that high... However I did have a grim fantasy of only sites critical of the tptb were taken down and no one cared out in tvland....

    No, they aren't shutting down servers they "don't like", they took over DNS servers from some script kiddies, and have been managing them. Anyone infected with these script kiddies malware will lose internet when these DNS servers are shut down.

    There is no chance that GIM is on one of these servers.

    HAH!

    I think I know what made it hard to read: The fargin "..." part of FOUR dots got printed by this POS software as an ellipsis.

    So it came out: "dotdotdotDOT"

    Ain't my fargin fault this Chicom software changes what I type.


    LATE PS: That makes it a SEKRIT IQ test code inside a code!
