I could not possibly disagree more. They are blaming the discoverers of their flaws for their security problems. That's not only poor judgment, it's deceptive to the consumer. Rather than admit the glaring flaws in their own product, they decide to publicly bash the firms that are helping people defend their own networks. > Their problems are another topic.

Do note that Microsoft only endorses thos products and services in which they can make a buck. All the while, they go out of their way to demonize every open source and security-related product and firm that is given out for free. That's not just stupid, it's just another shining example of their anti-competitive tactics. - -Jay ( ( _______ )) )) .-"There's always time for a good cup of coffee."-. >====<--.
