[News] Windows Exposes Universities to Crackers

Students become more insecure as hackers go to colleges

http://www.azcentral.com/business/articles/0605hackers05-ON.html

Notice the ill use of the word "hackers". Also, the article does not mention
"Windows" _even once_, e.g.:

,----[ Quote ]
| In April, the University of Texas discovered illegal access to 197,000
| Social Security numbers of students, alumni and employees. Ohio
| University confirmed its third security breach since April, together
| compromising 360,000 personal records and a number of patented data
| and intellectual property files.
`----

These servers ran Windows and were pwned for _over a year_, without anybody
realising it.
