They may be, but some flaws could exist in both, for instance, some
rather large security holes exist in Mozilla and Firefox that use3d to
exist in IE, but most were weeded out. Also, Outlook and Thunderbird.
Also, we have had to say this many times on this list, OOo is not an OS,
so I am assuming the programmers use some built in M$ functions, I was
wondering if this could be one of them, or if it is one that is built
into Excel only, or if there is an equivalent, or if it is a VBA thing
(although the fact it doesn't affect the rest of M$O makes me think it
isn't). I'd rather be paranoid about computer security than have my
system compromised.
And on a different note, you have always said not to insult the OP, take
your own advice. I'll just assume your having a rough day, or hadn't had
your coffee yet, to give you the benefit of the doubt.

I couldn't find any real details on it, but it looks like it can cause a
problem with memory handling (maybe?) specifically, msvcrt.memmove().
Anybody have thoughts on this, might this be a potential OOo issue?
I assume you are referring to
http://www.us-cert.gov/cas/techalerts/TA06-073A.html To the best of my
knowledge no. But why would you ask as OOo is as different from MSO as
night is from day?
