And, again, you don't see that about IBM bugs because they practice security by obscurity. If you search the ptf cover letters for Integrity problem it will not tell you that if you don't put this on someone can take over your system, they just simply say "Integrity problem". And if you search all ptf cover letters you get 250 hits. And that's just the integrity problems - let alone all the OS failures, websphere failures, etc. <snip> I just updated my machine last week. Looking at it now, there are about a dozen "Windows Security Updates" that say that not installing this patch will allow a malicious user to completely take over my machine. There is NOTHING like that on ANY IBM bug I have ever heard, with the possible exception of the passwords being stored in the clear in temporary storage. So, one bug versus dozens or more a month - no, there is no similarity. <endsnip> Rob Berendt -- Group Dekko Services, LLC Dept 01.073 PO Box 2000 Dock 108 6928N 400E Kendallville, IN 46755 http://www.dekko.com
