Yeah, a lot of people may have noticed, but for the most part it was "ooh that's nice" and people kept moving along. How many people put 2 and 2 together when the NEXT worm came out a few weeks later, the one that left a wide-open back door, and hassled their local Microsoft representative and didn't let up until they got a good answer to the question "How do I know the patches I download are OK?" Remember in your answer to the above that "because they're signed by us" is *NOT* a good answer - if you can't think of at least 4 different threat scenarios given that both hackers and worms have *known* to have been loose on their corporate net, you're in the wrong business.. ;) Or did you just pull a Canada Bill, who responed to the question "Bill, don't you known this game is crooked?" with "Yeah, but it's the only game in town"?
