As I replied to Monty privately, and as someone else said to the other
list - this is a bit harsh.
In the case of Windows bugs which are made a big deal about, there is
always, so far, documented, reproducable PROOF of the bug.
So far, in Mr Todd's case, all we have to go on is his big mouthing. Not
even one of the widely touted {by him} 17 people who replied to his
"challenge" is mentioned - no indication of if, or how many of these
machines he managed to hack.
This is very, very typical of Mr Todd, who makes his living making
grandious statements, then cashing in on the publicity these statements
create.
