What is incorrect ? The fact that one person can control many computer systems - home and business - all around the world ? That the same person can launch exactly the same attacks on my mail servers and the same attacks on my web servers from different machines all around the world ? That the machines being used for the attacks just happened to be running M$ ? That every day I witness the attacks on my systems ? > Your security practice, as you have described it, is poor.
