You REALLY don't get it, do you?

Instead of huffing and puffing, why don't you explain to us how you're going to affect admin resources by executing shruggle with user privledges?

You can't.

With a buffer-overflow vulnerability, you can.

It's that simple.

How can you sit there and argue about something so profoundly simple? So far you've shown zero ability to provide any substance to your argument.

I understand what you are saying, honest. Yes, there are alternative attacks. But NX removes a very powerful tool from the repretoire of the virus writers. This tool is not just going to be trivially replaced by some equally effective alternative, as you so strenuously argue. Crackers are significantly weaker in a world protected by NX. Does that sound like disgusting 'droid romanticism to you? So what, that's YOUR problem. That does not make it any less true.

The record of your argument re: NX is so full of fallacies you could teach a course...
