Re: Microsoft blames Vista insecurity on third party applications

[Jordan Wiens <numatrix () ufl edu>]

I like how the article title makes it sound like the problem is only 
third party titles, yet the content and the original blog post itself 
are clear that Outlook exhibits the same behavior.  Admitting Outlook 
also causes the same exposure is hardly the same as what the title 
implies.  And how come the article directly reference a blog posting but 
then doesn't link to it?

Somehow this article got edited oddly.  The only mention of Jim Allchin 
by anything except title is by last name only.  Seems like a link to the 
post and his name was somehow yanked from the first paragraph.

Anyway, the full blog entry is here:
