Well sooner or later Oracle, and no doubt IBM as well, had to get their turn banging MicroSoft for that Slammer fiasco. I'll give MicroSoft a little here (out of character I know) as when your the biggest cheese on the block just about everyone is out there trying to knock you over. In MicroSoft's case though they leave way too many opportunities to wear egg on the face out there for the picking. Oracle's Collaborative suite does have advantages over MS, the best being that MS targeted worms/viruses don't affect Unix/Linux platforms.

Long live the Pengiun!!
