Well...since I'm regularly in the habit of ticking people off lately, I'm just gonna say this.... NO COMMENT!!!!!

Buchanan Sent: Monday, September 16, 2002 11:28 PM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Microsoft's Response to the Word Flaw Charles Posted For some reason, I like this part: The customer confusion and speculation around this issue is a clear illustration of the challenges faced when security reports are made public rather than reported to the vendor. Responsible researchers work with vendors to ensure that the priority in dealing with security issues is first and foremost the protection and safety of users. Had this been the priority in this case, much of the confusion, speculation and anxiety that resulted in this case could have been avoided. <grin> :-) In other words, tell M$ before letting your workers/clients and so forth know! :-) To be fair, I do undertand their point, however did you notice the shifting from although it *could* be a problem, to "how DARE you people spread this around?" <g> ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
