Hi all, I've just posted this to Full-Disclosure, but it's apposite here and I think some of you now don't track F-D... Read this from the Kaspersky Analysts' Diary: http://www.viruslist.com/en/weblog?weblogid=199354341 Weep, laugh, /., etc as is your wont... Given the "obvious fix" to folk capable of making such a mistake in the first place, one might almost expect that, once it's fixed, "pIF" or "Pif" or "PiF" or "pIf", etc would still work. It's a good thing that Michael Howard and the boys have been wrastling security and code-quality concepts into the softies for most of this century -- imagine how bad things might be if they hadn't a been...
