FYI, interesting article today in Information Week regarding a trade group of 
senior executives complaining about vulnerable software:

http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=20800071

Among other things, the article quotes the group's security task force leader, 
Marian Hopkins, "We would challenge the software industry to create products 
that are easier to use, where security is a default component of the 
software".

Cheers,

Ken van Wyk
