What does Microsoft say in response?

In a news conference where Mr. Bill was approached with this very
question, he is reported to have stated that "The Windows Operating System
is the most secure piece of crap, er, um, code ever written.  Micro$loth
emphatically denies that this is anything but the most minor of issues,
and doesn't even rise to the level of threat necessary to achieve public
commentary.  Therefore, Micro$loth has no comment.  Thank you, and good
night.".
