Bill Gates on security:



"You don't need perfect code to avoid security problems. There are things we're doing that are making code closer to perfect, in terms of tools and security audits and things like that. But there are two other techniques: one is called firewalling and the other is called keeping the software up to date. None of these problems (viruses and worms) happened to people who did either one of those things." [on IT Business, via Slashdot]



He is such an easy target, so I feel bad commenting on this. Buy, boy howdy; you can't blame your customers and Cisco because Outlook is such a pitri dish. That is just bad PR.
