How predictible. However microsoft has accused the security firm involved for putting windows customers at risk.

WTF!

Are they really saying discovering vunrablities puts people are risk?! :crazy:

Heck even useing vunrabilities for beligirent purposes is safe. Sure a hacker can reverse engenear the program then exploit the vunrability but they probobly were the first to know it.

15 yard penalty for not playing by M$ rules

Both the vulnerability and the M$ response, however petulant, were predictable.

I'm suprised at M$'s response myself. Not going to be suprised by much they do from now on though.
