But as it is obvious, regardless of whether you did not intended it to be private, the exploit has fallen into other hands. As this is the case, and its being used to exploit the vulnerability, everyone should have access to it, not just the hackers who are trading it. As everyone should know, if you want to keep something private keep it to yourself (and even then chances are someone will find out). -- Aleph One / aleph1at_private http://underground.org/ KeyID 1024/948FD6B5 Fingerprint EE C9 E8 AA CB AF 09 61 8C 39 EA 47 A8 6A B8 01
