when i worked for lycos we had a group of engineers who were installing
6.2 and weren't applying any patches ... keep in mind, this was the summer
of 2002.  the things were comprimised in less than a day, one was even
taken over in less than 2 hours after installation.  i donated my box set
of 6.2 to the library, looking back i think that was a mistake =]

Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy
