Anyone here from Microsoft? Hacked?
If anyone from Microsoft is on the list. You might want to check to see if this is a hack or an old employee being funny. I did enjoy the link that sent me to McDonalds to apply for a job. Just curious, does anyone know what servers they run their content on? Is it still NT? Hope this info helps the webmaster.

I didn't find the link to work, but I'm pretty sure that everything before the @ sign is a username for the site hardware.no and this has nothing to do with Micrsoft whatsoever. andy -- PGP Key Available at http://www.tigerteam.net/andy/pgp

That's an old trick. Notice the "@" in there - the actual URL is http://hardware.no/nyheter/feb01/Q209354%20-%20HOWTO.htm Microsoft has nothing to do with it.

umm, notice that domain name? See that @ sign? Anything before it is sent as a username, which is generally ignored unless requested. We now return you to your regularly scheduled network operations discussion and flamewars. -Paul At 02:28 PM 1/24/2002, you wrote:

Reminds me of an old joke when I was in college. I used to have this in my .signature: Free UNIX accounts. Telnet to 127.0.0.1. Use your existing user ID and password to login. I got a lot of mail from concerned-but-clueless people warning me that this may be a criminal trying to harvest passwords. Of course, the joke is far less effective today, when most people on the internet are not using UNIX systems. -- David

I'm not sure if you're lacking clue() or are trying to be funny but there's no reason to trick people into using the non-ICANN approved osrc zone file on accident. Personally I use their root zone but I woudln't ever coerce someone else into doing it. -davidu Founder, EveryDNS.Net
