I used to have a law firm as a client who insisted on running their own email exchange server, despite no inhouse admin, and it was like pulling teeth to get them to do updates, or even use non-stupid (123456) passwords for that matter. I dropped them many years ago when they refused to upgrade from Server NT when it hit end of support. Somehow I managed to keep them safe up to that point despite them. The partners were nice people, but real penny pinchers.
I had to laugh when the senior partner complained one time about how much I was charging them (and keep mind, back then my labor rates were pretty low compared to my competitors, because back then I was aggressively looking for new clients, and I was also too damn nice). It was a little hard not to laugh at him when he complained about the $75 an hour I charged, when on his desk was a sign saying their standard hourly rate was $250 an hour.
This hack giving you any grief, Los?

Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.

Grief, yes. Not so much to me but our System Engineer is going nuts. We got hit the day before MS announced it. We patched and got hit 2 days ago.
We found a 30MB rar file that's password locked, that they created and we believe they pulled some data. Everyone has changed their password now 3 times this week as a precaution.
Currently running a brute force attack on that rar file, on a spare PC. We're curious to know what they compressed and transferred.
