'George Heron who is the Chief Scientist at McAfee spoke out in this commentary on why he thinks "Microsoft is wrong on Vista security". McAfee has been in full scale attack mode along with rival Symantec and even posted a full-page ad in the Financial Times against Microsoft locking down access to the Vista kernel ... Symantec and McAfee are essentially expecting Microsoft to bless the kernel modifications ... But is there a bit of hypocrisy in these AV vendor's arguments?'

Hypocracy is normally one of the worst things, but since its three companies I don't like in almost open war I'll ignore it this time.

Cry on!

P.S. nothign wrong with kernal modifications, just providing the above OS is secure enough to keep it from abuse.
