2. The Microsoft news Server is controlled by the Microsoft News Server admin (now
outsourced) and based upon their criteria, the server admin may choose to delete posts
from their server. This will include spam, posts with improper material and posts made by
such personalities as PCBUTTS1, Alias and Kevin Panzke.
Please will you confirm that this 'admin' team check all links - in posts like this one from PABear - to ensure that they go to bona fide web sites which are free from malware.

You are *fucking* *paranoid* !!
FWIW, "PABear" may piss some people off, but I don't believe he'd
intentionally post a link to malware.
Just to "wind you up" a little tighter, the number of innocent websites
that have been hacked to deliver malware has started increasing on a
logarithmic scale.
What was the flavor of the Koolaid you drank?

...and a local privilege escalation vulnerability makes it like
everybody runs as admin.

The word you were struggling to find was *exponentially*!
No - I'm not paranoid - just well informed.
My concerns are voiced well in the video clips here from Trend Micro
OR
Things *have* changed! ;)
