that doesn't even make sense.

Are you saying to have specific knowledge on the basis of which you =
made your claim? If not, then you have no clue and are simply making = things
up.

I didn't say I have no clue, I said to prove it I would have to =

Again, it is your claim. If you have no clue then why did you =
make your bogus claim? Why do you continue to do so?

They only way to prove that would be to get eeye to release a =
virus for each of the as yet unpatched exploits they list on their =
unpublished list. I think it's pretty unlikely I could convince them to = do
that. However once the patches are released and Microsoft admits that = these
are remote anonymous root exploits that should be sufficient proof = for anyone
but you.

You made a claim that 95% of computers are vulnerable to =
the point that eeye could own them. Unless you are ready to admit that = you
were bullshitting you would be able to tell us to which I am = vulnerable. In
fact given your claimed expertise I expect you to say = exactly which and how.
I don't think you can because you were = bullshitting. I don't expect you to
admit it.

Well then you would only be vulnerable to some of these for =
which there are no patches yet =

Which ones would depend on what you have installed.

You don't really think all I know about eeye is from =
their website do you?
As for your specific machines it's hard to say as I =
don't know what you run on them, but I do know all the thousands of = desktop
machines at Kaiser are susceptable to them. Surely Kaiser = numbers make you
irrelevant for the purposes of this discussion?

What do you think you can decide from their public =
relations pages? Tell me, how many of my machines are affected by each = of
their claims?
you need to get over your idol worship and pay =
attention to the damage they cause with their irresponsible self-serving =
behavior.
