FBI on the Windows Source Code Theft

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the don't-they-use-macs dept.

Chris Gondek writes "There are various articles about the Stolen Windows Source Code, but today it is confirmed that an FBI task force hunted for a cyber-criminal who posted on the internet source code for Windows which says 'I can confirm that the Northwest Cybercrime Task Force was investigating, FBI spokeswoman Robbie Burroughs said. The posted program is part of the source codes, or blueprints, for Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0, according to the company.' "

    I don't feel bad for Microsoft, but I do feel bad for Windows using consumers. They are the ones who will feel the brunt of this, should any virii arise from the leak.

    "I'm pretty sure from the posting pattern here on Slashdot that Microsoft has moles posting and trolling"
