Not that I think Microsoft has no responsibility for it's products....but,
This was done after patches were issued.  So the only thing Sven Jaschan did was
to disrupt the life of people that have better things to do than ensure their
system is up-to-date.  I'm talking about people like my Mom, or sister.  Yes yes,
 we need to educate everyone on how important it is to run updates.

I run Mac OSX.  Strange thing is that I've been receiving security updates....hmmm.
Where is the virus from Sven Jaschan to disrupt Apple's life?  I've seen many
security updates to different Unix flavors also.  BUT!  We know Microsoft is the
only one to blame.

Sorry, first post after months of listening.  I'm sure I'll get flamed, but....
bring it on.  I'm used to deleting the noise from this list anyway.
Don't get me wrong though.  I enjoy the good information when it comes.
