Third Microsoft Word Code Execution Exploit Posted
gregleimbeck writes "Exploit code for a third, unpatched vulnerability in Microsoft Word has been posted on the Internet, adding to the software maker's struggles to keep up with gaping holes in its popular word processing program.
The attack code, available at Milw0rm.com, contains sample Word documents that have been rigged to launch code execution exploits when the file is opened."
well then it's a good thing I don't download word documents ever :P

Fucking hell, man...if your attitude is anything to go by, no wonder the majority of open source software sucks in comparison to commercially produced alternatives. You have to understand that the vast majority of people use computers to *get things done*, and when they're not getting things done they want to have fun. Fixing other peoples bugs, implementing missing functionality and writing their documentation doesn't fit into this equation, which is why most people are willing to pay for (ok, often pirate) commercial software. "put up with the shitness or fix it yourself" is an appalling attitude, but it seems to be what you're saying.
