>Improbable for "low-value" targets, perhaps. But the main gist is that if you do have something which is high-value, at least to you, it may not be as safe/invulnerable as you may think if you're using a product such as TrueCrypt or PGP Whole Disk (I imagine BitLocker is in that same category). > >Another thing to bear in mind, these sorts of exploits always get weaponized and automated so that semi-skilled or unskilled individuals can use them. "Script kiddies" attack Web properties; can "script maids" be very far off? < g >
