Ya know, I'm not the biggest MS fan around, but Mr. Forno needs to get some facts streight.

First, Blaster does not "affect practically all versions of Windows". It only affects Windows 2000 and Windows XP (according to the Symantec website).

Second, it was not "exploit and fix - a matched set!". It was a fix then the exploit.

When this guy can write a robust operating system without any security flaws, then he has the right to complain about this. Bugs exist in any extensive program, it's just a fact. Believe it or not, programmers are human to and can overlook something.
