I've always wondered if the next cisco/juniper 0 day will be delivered via a set of exploits delivered via a link posted to NANOG. :) Maybe I'll do a talk at DEFCON next year about that.
more likely a 'shortened' url. how anyone can click those is beyond me.
http://tinyurl.com/preview.php - at least these guys understand some of the issues involved. At the cost of setting a preference cookie, clicking on one of their shortened URLs will take you to a page that says where it's going to take you. Of course, after that, you *still* have to ask yourself how safe it is to click on that computerworld.com link. ;) (For the record, computerworld.com links usually seem to be safe for your computer - like most trade journals, most of their danger is how many IQ points you lose reading the article :)
