Re: M$ puts bounty out for Blaster and Sobig culprits

Maybe M$ should put out a bounty for reporting bugs in their
crappy software without going public instead.  That might be
more effective.
Either have to
a) Pay *everyone* who reported the same bug (leading to a nice little
money tree where a group of people individually report the same thing)
b) live with the fact that the first finder would take the money, the
second finder would be pissed at them for not paying and publish
immediately...
