Duke,

"There are two plus million lines of code that were looked at. Nobody without 100 engineers on staff is going to be able to get through it. "

Actually, why would a hacker care about most of the bloat? One engineer could look at MSFT's security source code to find the leaks and then leisurely examine every Windows server/client on the Internet. That is a very serious possibility.

It is the people using Windows to house vital data that should be screaming for a service pack right now.

Cheers,

Norm
