Dragon Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 you know there is a problem when a computer company gets notified a month ago about a security problem and doesn't fix it. Especially when that Company is Micro$oft. Check it out.Why didn't Microsoft do this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikex Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 This would be a good example of what a "White hat Hacker" does. Positive Technologies are not hackers, that is not what I saying. White hat Hackers find the flaws and then contact the programers so the have a chance to fix the problem before "Black Hats" exploit the flaw. ie trojans,worms and etc...The steps the programers take to fix the flaw and the time they take is a whole other story.
