Not to bash Microsoft, but it sounds to me like this is just blurring the
issue. If you can open up a Word document and have it execute arbitrary
code, then the software is broken. IMHO, you should not have to setup
ACLs to protect yourself from your own software. I take it from your
comment that they are not planning on fixing it.
Just my worthless $.02 :)
