There is no reason to keep them locked away to a selected view, the bugs are fixed, if anybody wants to exploit them they can just do a DIFF on the source which is viewable anyway. We have automatic updates that notify them (even without installing) of such changes. Why hide them in shame? Sweeping them under the carpet?
There is NO REASON at all to keep them HIDDEN.
So complaining about not reading Microsoft's bug database when one cant read opensource's bug database fully is different? I dont think so. Pot meet the kettle.
Hey I know you, you are that guy that always complains about having to REGISTER FREE on the NYTimes links on slashdot no? OH wait, pot, meet the kettle.
It has EVERYTHING to do with opensource, they scream and shout "open" and "many eyes" when they refer to open source but in reality it is everything but open.
Its not flamebait its a real problem with mozilla opensource mentality and their bug database. Its suppost to be OPEN no? So much for OPEN in OpenSource. I guess you dont like to be criticised. OMG no hes saying something bad about us, mommy! *puts on blinkers and mods down* Must not listen! Must not listen! This is the mentality that is destroying opensource from within.
I never got the notification, I only found out when I read this article and clicked manual check for updates... SO much for auto updating technology. It obviously does not work, the idea is we get it BEFORE its headline news?
When going to the bugzilla database for a bug ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33683 0 ) in the release notes on this build of firefox I get...

Opensource is FUD. Security bug? So what, its FIXED so SHOW ME THE DAMN BUG.
Open source? SO why do I have to SIGN UP to VIEW the bug database? IT says I am not authorized to view the bugs in the release notes. So much for open source. I do not want to EDIT it, just VIEW READ ONLY.
I own an AMD 64bit Mobile chip and it SCREAMS, SHOUTS and ROARS when I open a browser:)
It has EVERYTHING to do with the processor, its just to damn hot too much of the time for simple things.
If FAN NOISE and Melted laptop plastic is your bag then sure buy AMD mobile chips:)
Personally I value quietness and low power.
AMD's new slogans. "Can you hear me now?" "Do you want fries with that melted laptop?"
AMD lost the mobility race. Intel won. Sure AMD are great performers, if want to be deaf.
I lived in Sweden and its not my native language and I have the right to vote as do many ex-pats, you are so narrowminded, that is one thing I did learn about alot of Swedish people. Intolerant, narrow and materialistic and selfcentered.

I always use sector encryption on my hard drives and wipe using PGP wipe when selling. Why not use the new Seagate drives with built in crypto now? Vista has sector crypto now? Why not use NTFS encrypted folders for your stuff but that doesnt cover caches and various temp files used by applications. This is something applications need to do, allow us to manage any possible cache and storage instaed of the currently splattered and hidden about files today. How about a standard on how Applications manage this kind of like a personal privacy standard?

How do you think they exploit current Microsoft bugs? They run a diff on before and after the hotfix and they dont have source then.

They are swept under the carpet, just try viewing them in the bugzilla database :)
Then if they disable a protection system then tough they chose to not be protected automatically. Live by the sword, die by the sword.
Its FIXED so make them PUBLIC. AUTOMATIC updates withing the browser itself no? Are you saying it doesn't work? :)
I feel shame on their part.
OMG i have to sign up to NYTimes articles OMG what shall I do! Oh wait...
So what, theyre FIXED.

Thats an entire 24 hours worth of porn downloading you insensitive clod!
