Let's see... http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=microsoft+security+contact&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&meta= First hit : http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/contact.asp Simple drop-down menu and then the web form. Damn, that was a pain... > If check where those people you heard saying they tried to contact you > tried first, you would see that the first and most logical address would > be securityat_private Righto... securityat_private&meta">http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=securityat_private&meta= First hit : http://www.securityfocus.com/news/545 And there's an SF article about Microsoft wishing to move security notifications from email (secureat_private as mentioned in that very article) to the web-based form so cunningly previously enumerated. Both methods are thus obtained in less time than it took to write this email. Some vendors are a damn site harder to track down, let alone them ignoring you unless you have a support contract - you might want to pick a better example of this ?
