Sorry Hans don't understand your last remark. Both of the url's cited pose dangers for the oracle database community.

How long until variants of the worm appear that actually cause damage?

How many oracle databases are there out there that are at risk? How many times do developers or consultants or contractors unskilled or too "busy" install things and leave them at default settings? Way too often.

It's bad news for all of us. Received on Thu Nov 03 2005 - 13:59:43 CST
