It's been said in here that Unix variants have been leaps and bounds ahead
of today's Windows for many years. So how come the security of this great
OS could be easily worked around with a little UNIX knowledge and a little
program called Satan? Are you going to tell me Unix is now as bad as NT
because it was insecure?
 JD> openings that can be readily exploited.
Which is exactly what Satan does.
