Warning, this message may offend some viewers ... This mailing list never ceases to amaze me. Not only does someone ask such a ridiculous question as "how do I run a windows program", but there are *multiple* replies. Please people, don't grace such nonsense with even a single reply, or if you really must, for god's sake don't send it to the entire mailing list as well. What percentage of subscribers actually find discussion of how to run windows programs useful/interesting information? I would guess slim to nil. Consider that the kid lacks the basic abilities to go to google and type "snort windows 98" or read documentation, yet has the gall to email an entire mailing list begging for help with little to no explanation of his problem and expect assistance. Do you really think this is a person who needs to be running snort? Do you think he knows what it's even for? Could he comprehend the output? I doubt it. So why even bother, or more importantly, why bother the list? I wouldn't get so worked up if this wasn't such a frequent occurence on this list. On other lists when an asinine question comes in it gets ignored, or is answered via personal email not cc'ed to the list. For some reason snort-users hasn't learned that behaviour. Let's try to change that.
