hrrm....a lovely cycle

Microsoft: "This is exactly how you can attack our software, we'll be putting out a patch 'soon'"
Hackers: "Oh boy! We've got x days to do this! Cowabunga!!!"
Microsoft: "Hey....stop that!"

So now they're going to turn the hackers against themselves. Good luck with that, let me know how it works out for ya.
