It's funny...
A) Actually, the day the security advisory and patch were released it was stated that there were no confirmed exploits in the wild. Which is why it's big news that there is one today. Of course you could ignore that point.

B) You're right, it does affect Vista, sort of. You have to be an authenticated user. Which means it could be a PITA on a domain where all the PCs are authenticated. But even once authenticated it still has to deal with memory randomization and will, therefore, take longer to infect a Vista PC.

So, you were completely wrong on one point and half wrong on another. In a post where you call someone stupid. What does that make you?
