- Inside of 25 minutes. From activation to detection to eradication. Boy am I
- impressed. NOT! And your log. You seem to be taking enjoyment as people
- explore the limits of the bugs you installed. You're not much of a
- programmer. Sure, people didn't notice that the wrong person owned page, but
- changes happen all the time on FurryMuck, and lots of people don't pay
- attention, they just use it. Also, anyone with a builder bit can remove your
- infection. Clue for the Clueless: EVERYONE on FurryMuck has a Builder bit.
-
- I was online at the time, strangely, it didn't infect me. Guess it's not as
- effective as you thought. But then, all adolescent hackers like to puff
- themselves up.
-
- Of course, it's bragging like this that gets computer criminals caught. Yes,
- that's right. I said Computer criminals. What you did unquestionably counts
- as malicious computer tampering and there ARE Federal laws against this.
- Lucky for you, Hawkwind is in Canada, but it is a government owned machine.
- If it had been in the US and the sysadmin (who in this case is also a player)
- wanted to be an asshole, you could be up on charges, and unlike the guy who
- wrote the princeton worm, who got off with an easy 400 hours of community
- service, now the judges are handing down jail time.
-
- Virus hackers are NOT very popular people. If you really want to show off
- your meagre programming talents, do something constructive. ANy idiot can
- smash things.

-
- Happens all the time. In fact, your log only shows one instance of TinySex.
- considering that people are on Furry for conversation and cameraderie, I
- guess the concept of a friendly scratch on the head is alien to an asshole
- like you.

-
- Amazing what you interpret as TinySex. You must not be too aquainted with
- the real thing. As for Bestiality, I thought only humans had net.access? If
- you think there's real animal sex involved here, you're even less in touch
- with RL than the Furries you hate so much.
-
- And why DO you have such a hard on for harassing furry anyway? I never
- understood that.

-
- Maybe you're so repressed because you can't even get VR sex either. That's
- why you spend your time harassing other folks who aren't doing you any harm.
- I bet if it weren't for the net, you'd be joining the PMRC or something.
- Oh, and notice in the rant about tinysex at the top of this post, he makes
- sure to mention that he has a RL sex life. RIGHT. It comes montlhy in the
- mail with a plain brown wrapper. People with SOs don't have nearly as much
- time to Muck.

-
- More puffery. You didn't crash Furry. It didn't even breathe hard. You
- didn't infect even half of the players online. In less than half an hour,
- your bit of bullshit was neutralized. I'm not impressed.
