Hi Gaby,

Thanks for the information. While my intention was not to shut down all
discussion on the implications of the vulnerability, and the impact it
might have on networks, but the context of the follow-up posts were
primarily reports of success of failure in the procedure described.

Any posts that take a new tack from what has been discussed in this thread
are welcome.

In particular:  Muhammad indicated that he had emailed Microsoft
about 10 times regarding the vulnerability, but there was no
response of any kind until it was posted to full-disclosure/bugtraq.
