ROTFL
i wonder if it's worth iit just to go in and say, "Hey that was me and ah... ...my mother is ah... turning me in, yeah that's right."
If they actually fixed it, it would amount to an admission that it's an inferior product--they're never going to do that. Instead, it's far more convenient to put a bounty on a "hacker" and focus the attention of the public on someone else. Microshaft, despite all their lip service to the contrary, doesn't care about security, just the $$$$, else it would have been fixed a long time ago.
It is a shame that the same rule doesn't apply to robbery and insurance. I can just imagine the dialogue that might occur should you try to use this tactic after having been burgled due to your leaving the door open when on holiday.
