I am a software developer working for SAP-Sybase in Waterloo, Ontario. I am a member of the SQL Anywhere engineering team. I write primarily in C, C++, python, and perl.

In my spare time, I use PHP, (X)HTML, CSS, and Javascript on some personal web sites. I also enjoy sports, primarily lacrosse, hockey, and baseball.

comment With an expert Sys admin, are windows and linux equal for security
@vartec: The servers aren't the target because they usually have some competent administrator looking after them. For every web server you "recruit" for your botnet, there are potentially thousands of web client machines (mostly Windows) that you could be using whose users are far less likely to notice.

comment Which ports to use on a self-written tcp server
Not true, there are lots of ports above 1024 that are reserved by IANA (see Murali Suriar's answer). Port numbers above 49152 are not reserved.

Personally, I'd vote to close if I had the rep, but whatever. But offering a bounty? WTF?

comment Windows XP hanging on login screen
I use Caps Lock all the time for just such a test. That may, however, be the only real use for Caps Lock...

Yes, that's all I meant. I wasn't implying "Windows people are dumb", being a Windows guy myself. :-)
