MSBlaster, Nimbda, Code Red, the Love Bug, SOBig, Mellissa, what the hell is wrong with operating systems that allow Viruses to run rampent
Sub7Backdoor, Backorifice, Netbus, Why the hell is Windows so insecure and why are there so many Trojans/backdoors out and about?
As part of some research I have been doing I have found that there are too many software vendors who ignore the fact that "design phillosophy" is important to keeping their products secure. A nice example is the windows scripting and VBscript in programs like oOutlook, it is more popular to make the products "cool" and "fun to use" rather than to make sure things don't go wrong.
What bad security experiences have you lot had (700 infected files on one machine is mine)?
