Nathaniel, go away. You botha us.
Any useful information in your anouncement is already well-known.
The rest of it is alarmist and self-serving. There have been
several excellent posts pointing out the flaws in your arguments.
BTW, I took a look at the FV web page. While checking out the
information section I had a bad flashback to one of those late night
infomercials on "buying and selling." Looks cut from the same
mold. Truly sad.
Until I actually see an advisory from CERT, I'll just have to
assume they told FV to go take a flying leap. I certainly hope they
have enough integrity to ignore this.
Hmm.. Did I just hear the sound of Nathaniel Borenstein and
*@*.fv.com being added to ZILLIONS :-) of killfiles and filter
lists?
KLUNK
I thought I did.
