    Well, while we're OT . . . That should qualify for some award . . .

    <sarcasm>
    Poor Microsoft! Being attacked by Thieves, Con Artists, terrorists and,
    God forbid(!) HACKERS. Well, here's a flash for Mr. Ballmer. If your
    software wasn't Swiss cheese, it wouldn't be vulnerable and you
    wouldn't be attacked!!!
    </sarcasm>

    Seriously, though, this is yet another bit of evidence to me that they
    just don't get it . . .

    Sorry. That just insulted even my limited intelligence . . .
