<snip> *** There is an article by The Register.co.uk about this. It seems to have been a lot of fuzz about nothing. Seeing who's involved and knowing what nowerdays "credible information" means when it comes from certain US Government sources, The Register might just be right. Anyway, it was probably useful to be made aware of the importance to keep up 2 date with security patches. -- Cheers, Zoran.
