Can you think of a sillier thing to criticize MSFT about? Really?
I looked at (some) of the code. They do a malloc(strlen(foo)+1), and, if it succeeds, they do a strcpy() of foo. THERE IS NO VOODOO MAGIC IN STRNCPY TO MAKE IT SAFER IN THIS SITUATION.
Vista SUCKS because 3rd party software that is documented to NOT WORK IN VISTA and even issues a pop-up to that effect, in fact, doesn't work in Vista Beta 2.

Too bad I'm all out of moderator points at the moment.

And they could start sending their messages via USPS bulk rate.
This would surely bring about the end of civilization as we know it.
How long can it be before scientists realize that the Zoq-Fot-Pik have already perfected the tongueing attack in their struggles against the zebranky.
