Want to know what Microsoft thinks about its product? From the same
link:
"We recognize that not all applications and drivers were up to
date by launch and that there have been some compatibility issues as
a result," says Ian Hameroff, senior product manager with
Windows Server Networking. "But we also know that Windows Vista
is the highest-quality, most secure and most broadly supported
operating system we've ever released."
It's certainly secure from IPv6 hacks <chuckle>.
Actually, since one of the problem is IPv4 with IPv6 module loaded,
Microsoft should know about that problem. Why doesn't it?
Hameroff adds that Microsoft is running an IPv6 network and "to
my knowledge has not experienced these types of issues" that
Murphy describes.
Doesn't look like they're running both, does it. So much for testing.
