Vista's security(?)

December 27th 2006 21:57
The hackers and specialists have found at least 6 major security flaws in Vista operating system. (The New York Times)
It's a month before Vista's BIG release. (Vista was advertised as the most secure OS.)
"On Dec. 15, a Russian programmer posted a description of a flaw that makes it possible to increase a user’s privileges on all of the company’s recent operating systems, including Vista. And over the weekend a Silicon Valley computer security firm said it had notified Microsoft that it had also found that flaw, as well as five other vulnerabilities, including one serious error in the software code underlying the company’s new Internet Explorer 7 browser."


The Microsoft is attends to Vista's security, but - by every indication - it doesn't work too good. But - I think - the people will buy it, even if they must fight for it, like for PlayStation 3.
