    Hello Bipin,

    Before I begin, please understand that this is just a
    friendly advice for you, not a flame.

    You seem to do a lot of hunting for bugs on your
    WinXP. That is good, but, please understand that
    some(emphasis on "some") of the stuff you put out is
    worthy of being on a security list, while most is not.
    Why do you think you get flamed so much while hundreds
    of other posters dont? Certainly, not everyone else on
    this list, other than you, is a Script Kiddie?
    Following the logical conclusion, something is wrong
    with you. Dont you think so? Do some introspection...

    Your biggest problem seems to be that though you have
    an inquisitive mind, you are not able to understand
    what bugs constitute a security vuln. You cannot, yet,
    distinguish between a simple anomalous situation and a
    security threat for even the simplest of bugs. One
    piece of advice - get someone knowledgeable to review
    your reports before you Gator ;D the lists with them.
    If need be, get a mentor of some kind, whom, you can
    trust to read through your reports.

    And take some English classes...

    You would have, if you had cared to Google a little.
