It is definitely a stretch to call this a backdoor. Every security flaw ever found in Windows could have been a backdoor, and we would never have known. I think it's a bit 'tin foil hat' to try to say they are backdoors.

It won't surprise me if there's another [problem] that has not been patched. It won't surprise me at all.

You have to wonder why it took more than 220 days to create that patch if they missed these flaws.

The bad part is the exploits were released so quickly, most people haven't patched them yet.

For large organizations, it's just infeasible. One day is pretty fast.

That's a long time to leave several million Windows users without any sort of protection.

[Our patch] fixes the specific vulnerability itself. It's not going to break any of the JavaScript functionality unless it's a Web site that's being specifically malicious. You can't have people without protection for 16 more days when an attack is underway.

It's disappointing that Microsoft says the threat isn't big because it's only been found on 200 URLs. Why are they thinking about these attacks like they think about network worms? The risk of the quiet, targeted attack is very, very high and this should be an emergency situation for Microsoft.

Obviously these things (fixes) are experimental in nature but considering the options of being vulnerable or at least having a fighting chance--well, I think you get the point. Again, this is just another mitigation option until Microsoft releases their patch, which last was scheduled for April 11th, or 16 days from now.

Companies like Microsoft are not equipped to deliver protection in a timely manner.

It's kind of like having the cure and not sharing it with anybody.

Yes, there is the marketing side of things like [developing] the IE patch. But at the end of the day, we put a patch out there to help. It's not like we did something bad to get this attention.

One of our customers asked which patch they should deploy if there starts to be a lot of third-party patches. I told them, it's just like picking a dentist or a plumber -- you're going to go with someone who's got a good reputation.

We have a good working relationship with Microsoft. We may disagree on a lot of things, especially how long it takes them to come up with a patch, but we agree on the most important thing, which is keeping customers protected.

We are definitely going to see dangerous exploits for it because it's not really technically challenging to write the exploit code.
