The MS databases are the weakest links. All our apps we used to write we used an IBM AS/400 for the database server. You could hack the NT server but all you could do was screw around with some html and asp code. AS/400's are extremely difficult to hack into which is why the pentagon uses them. Another dirty little secret that Microsoft doesn't want people to know is that they ran their business on IBM AS/400's until a few years ago because they knew their own security was so poor.

Ulife,
Tell me...
Have you developed any apps with MS SQL Server/Windows Server 2000 or 2003? How did that go? Who programmed the app? Who admin the server? Did they use the right tools to lock the server down?
Also, have you looked around webmaster resource sites that have always been very Pro PHP and have you noticed that they all love .NET? (
www.sitepoint.com is one)
How much research have you done on MS security?
