Out of Date and Unpatched Computers
One of the most interesting things I’ve learned over watching web statistics of my visitors is how many unpatched computers there are out there. I see a ton of firefox 1.x browsers, Internet Explorer 4, 5, and. Windows 98, Windows 95, and even Windows ME. Now some of those I can understand, but Windows Millenium? Seriously? I ran windows ME for a whole 48 hours before converting back to WIndows 98SE.
I can only imagine how many of those are completely spyware infested. Part of the reason I do my best to keep my blog patched, occasionally a virus comes along that will infect web pages. I will always do my best to keep that from happening by visiting any of my sites. Graned some of the sites I crosspost to I can’t control the patching on, I can only hope their administrators are on the ball with all those obsolete and vulnerable OS’s around.
