Sorry for that earlier exchange today. I thought I was pointing
out the fact that an exploit has been available in the underground
for a vulnerability whose details have been kept away from the
public and that this is an example as to why security through
obscurity does not work. Obviously Russ thought this was something
else. It happens. Such is life in a medium like email where its
difficult to express intent. Now that the fun is over we can
go back to being our boring selfs.
