Windows kernel protection expected to break soon
Another analyst speaking the obvious. No kidding someone is going to hack PatchGuard, its only a matter of time. Give it time and any operating system will be broken into. What Microsoft did was make it much harder to hack. Along with that having public betas of the software allows these hackers to get a head start on the process. You have to remember that Microsoft Windows is the most widely used operating system so there will be more people trying to target it.

I'm thankful that Microsoft is making it tougher to hack and when the exploits are found and reported it will get patched quickly. Nothing is 100% secure but Microsoft sure is trying hard to make it that way.
