Microsoft downplaying Office security hole. I would've let this go without notice except for this great comment by Microsoft's Scott Culp: "The user would need to take a series of deliberate steps that we believe would only occur as part of a social engineering attack". Wait, we're talking about a customer base that, en masse, has fallen for exploits that involve launching untrusted executables, not once, but over and over and over again.
