What's that mail?

I've recently got a mail from the www.animeleague.com page saying that I registered on their forum or got into their subscription. Is it somehow connected with registering on this page

Nope. Not at all.

Like Zarxax said, it doesn't. Someone mostly likely typed their email wrong or put in a "fake" email address which happens to be yours.

Or the site bought your address from spammers

I'm sure we have a few that would claim they have sk177z and could hack for you, but it's not proper to ask about such things on this forum.

I recommend to the mods that this thread be pruned or deleted.

Maybe they are harvesting email address from here >.<

Hacking? Are you speaking of cracking? Hackers don't do such things.
As for Microsoft servers, they are the hardest to break into. For unix, jus telnet in and log yourself into root. Running Apache? Give it a huge URL and the server has a Problem. Apache running as ROOT?! Tempting!!!

Really danielwang, what server-admin who knew what the hell he was doing would keep it named as ROOT.

Linux servers can be VERY secure.

The problem is, it's difficult to use and easy for a 13-year-pld to set up. Linux users aren't necessarily smarter. They usually are, considering the age of UNIX, but still they are not necessarily intelligent.

Windows ships with all the services turned on and features galor. But it still ships secure - even the Windows Setup program will download (signed) patches while you're installing and put them right in.

Windows XP, which by default restricts blank passwords to local use only (a feature NOT availible on Unix) is idiot resistant. Linux isn't.

This thread is now recyclable

You're generalizing, and your argument sucks.

Specific counter example: Gentoo ships with zero services enabled. If you follow the installation instructions, you have to have a user account and administrator account.

Yes, "If you follow the installation instructions". Of course you'll fuck up things if you don't follow the manual. This is obvious. It is also obvious that the sysadmin is strongly involved with the security of the system.

Unfortunately, none of this connects with your assertion that UNIX boxes are easy to break into. You're saying "for x,y,z as elements of a given set of administrators, and t(a) the task of cracking a box administered by administrator a, for some x, t(x) is easy to do; for some y, t(z) is hard, therefore t(z) is easy for all z". That's not logical. Hell, it's not anything.
