I'd like to make a self-serving statement in response to dozens of people
who pointed out that this month, iDefense pays $10,000 per any
vulnerability that would result in a Microsoft security advisory rated
"critical"...

YES, I HAVE THIS KNOWLEDGE.

I simply do not subscribe to that way of making money. It might be that
I'm insane or dumb, but it feels good.
