Cursor flaw gives Vista security a black eye
Tuesday, April 10th, 2007
Microsoft’s release of a "critical" patch on Tuesday poked holes in Vista’s security 
promises, but security experts advise against discounting the new operating system. The software giant broke with its monthly patch cycle Tuesday to fix a bug that cybercrooks had been using since last week to attack Windows PCs, including those running Vista.
"As far as software vulnerabilities go, Vista’s cover is blown," said Nand Mulchandani, a vice president at Determina, the company that discovered the latest security bug. "It is not Superman; it is just a human being. It is just software. Vista is going to be very similar to the other operating systems Microsoft has delivered in terms of bugs."
