Law and Order Microsoft has a little liability problem called Windows. Many are no doubt aware of a would-be class-action lawsuit launched last week in California. The suit targets Microsoft over security problems. The plaintiff is a woman who had her identity stolen. Details are here. (NYTimes, free registration required)

Quote --- "When did Outlook automatically run attatchments?"

More then one version of Outlook that would automatically run attatchments when an email was opened. I do not believe it has been an issue in more recent versions however. They learned there lesson on that one. Besides, its just an example to illistrate where I believe the line is between incidents beyond MSs control and negligence.
