Rep told me not to worry...
Our CSO called me in and demanded an answer to this bogus claim. I calmly whipped out my Windows Mobile Phone, flipped it open and dialed my rep. My rep then told my CSO this malicious code was FUD and that the best way to ensure our security and, to put it bluntly, our utter survival is to continue to upgrade every Microsoft product everytime one is released. My rep and I then repeated our mantra in unison: "Microsoft software anytime, anyplace, anywhere". With that my rep picked me up in his new Mercedes and took me off for a fine dinner.
