When the internet was still friendly you contacted the
author of the software first before you post a detailed
exploit. 

Perhaps we should have a more prominent e-mail address
to handle security related problems. 

Anyway, has anybody looked into the problem? A patch would
be sort of usefull. Microsoft gets accused of being slow
when it says it needs 14 days for a patch. Lets show that
we can do it in hours.

Cheers,
Waldo
