>>>Could somebody with an "in" to Ken Levy please get a response about the GDI+ vulnerability and how it affects VFP, and what developers should do about it? It sounds like the sh-t is about to hit the fan with this issue and so far there has been nothing at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/ and almost nothing here about it. Thanks.

>>Version: 5.1.3097.0 is vulnarable and it's what InstallShield uses in some installations if not all.

>Do you know how to package the DLL into an MSM? Does anybody? Can it be done by somebody with a "pro" version of installshield and then posted for us limited-edition users to download?

No I don't know. It's a shame I even don't know how to use InstallShield (I don't deal with packaging at all:).
Actually it's our customers which are IT technicians who found the vulnerable version and one another pointed out to solution. I love them:)
