Thanks for the heads up. It's very possible that this is the same bug but obviously we found it in a different context. It surely seems like it may be the original that Apple would not discuss with us. The bug number it was duped against was over 2 million bugs prior. Does that sound like Apple knew about this for nearly _4_ years (!) and didn't do anything about it? That's seriously pathetic if it's actually that case! Regards, Jacob Appelbaum
