Hello
Before you read this message further, this is actually a continuation
of an email under a different case number. The original case number
is: SRX1015374076ID
All relevant information regarding this issue is copied below. Before
closing, I would like to point out that after sending the customer
satisfaction survey, I have received no further direct communication
about the issue associated with the aforementined case number. Am I
to assume that once you send a customer the satisfaction survey, you
close the case file? The issue was never resolved to my satisfaction
which is why I am complaining again and why there will be 2 case
numbers for the same issue. My apologies, but you left me no choice.


PREVIOUS CORRESPONDENCE STARTS HERE:

Thank you for the note. I find it interesting that Netcraft
identified
the load balancing system used. I would not however consider this a
vulnerability. There are quite a few tools out there that allow
people
to gather information about the type of device/OS that they are
connecting to/through. Some of these "fingerprinting" methods include
throwing different types of ICMP packets at the device/OS and matching
the response to a database of expected responses and associated
products.
I will however pass this along to the MSN group for their information
and action if necessary.
Kind regards,
Brian
