Or are you guys just gonna do another "oops the cat's out the bag" again like what happened with the verbal contract agreement Dan Kaminsky had with everyone before a blog entry leaked the vulnerability by *accident*. Is this Microsoft agreement of non-disclosure actually enforceable by any current law? If not a new law is needed to be drawn up, see the link above, or this "Microsoft Active Protection Program" is gonna turn out a complete shambles. http://news.cnet.com/8601-1009_3-10006325.html?communityId=2114&targetCommunityId=2114&messageId=772539#772539 _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
