Of course not, but I don't have the legal liability they have either and my
dev staff is the staff of one so I can get to the people in the know rather
quicker than MS. Plus I don't have to be politically correct and be nice
about it.

It does? I could think it means they talked to press people and they didn't
want to just talk, they wanted to wait for someone who knew code could look
into the issue. If the press person just quickly responded, someone would
beat them for that as well. There are a lot of people out there that just
like to beat on MS regardless of what is said.

joo,

are you speaking for m$?

the article clearly states:

" Microsoft told Techworld it was aware of the reports but was not
immediately able to comment."

you know that "not able to comment" basically means "screwed" ?
