That's more than a little deceptive. The original post was cross-posted
to both microsoft.public.security and microsoft.public.virtualserver and
_you_ set follow-ups on your response to microsoft.public.security. For
reference here are the headers from your post:

Why would you feel the need to set follow-ups if you weren't aware that
it had been cross-posted in the first place? Perhaps your news reader
does that automatically?
