Just to be a wet blanket, stories of Symantec being vulnerable to security breaches have been floating around for a few months now. It's no less excusable but it's not breaking news. What has me really concerned is that these vulnerabilities *have* been around for so long. The fact that they're still being reported is very worrying. Can anyone spell H.A.C.K.E.R.S.W.E.T.D.R.E.A.M.?
