microSOFT is soft all right
Security experts have urged Microsoft to rush the patch because of the onslaught of attacks. More than a million PCs have already been compromised

"Microsoft makes security experts work too hard"

Microsoft said it hasn't seen many attacks on it customers

"Well I did'nt see them but I sure read about them.".

We have to weigh putting out a partially tested update against the severity of the attack

"hmm,over a million..."

After examining the software, Gibson believes Microsoft could push out the fix before Patch Tuesday
"Really?"

"They obviously already have it packaged and ready to go," he said. However, there are reasons for Microsoft to hold off. "Major corporate users very much dislike randomly timed patch releases, since it is deeply disruptive of everything else that's going on," he added.

"Has to make sure his 'Buddies' get it first" screw the rest of the world. Even though at about $100 a shot, over a million, lets see..."

WoW. NOW IF COULD LEARN LINUX...
