  OH... I see... The victim has primary responsiblity
for the crime. I must
 admit, I do agree with your statement "LOCK
THEM UP". But it's not the   house
 or the server that shuold be locked up, it's
the CRIMINALS!   
  I think a server on a high bandwidth connection with the default root and
  password could easily be considered an attractive nuisance. Just like a
  backyard swimming pool with no fence or lock on the gate.
   Excellent analogy!!  Somebody falls in your insecure pool and YOU are at 
fault.  This scenario happens all too often in America.  It should not be 
this way agreed, but it is.
