Oh that's just great..........
I get ONE piece of S/W I can really work with, and it gets this...........
As an aside. Is there any way of knowing how long they take to sort out, and release the update ?
And is the S/W at risk if you have your security set up running ? As opposed to Joe Public, who wouldn't know security if it bit them on the ass..........
so now I'm in my SIXTIES FFS
WTAF, how did that happen, so no more alterations to the sig, it will remain as is now
Beware of Geeks bearing GIF's
come and waste the day :P at The Taz Zone

The update I'm not too sure about nor really that last question. However, I don't think it's really at-risk that much if you have your security setup running. Like you said, opposed to Joe Public (my name's Joe, but not Public ) who wouldn't have security and would probably have the flaw and the risk at a higher level.
